Pros

The software suite contains some of good products - but the setup is like from 90’s and innovation is rather slow. Good as a starting job for couple of years after school (but no longer). Some of the great people.

Cons

Weak and unethical management on all levels - no energy, no drive, micromanagement, gossiping, political games, protection of certain people, false promises. Absence of listening and acquiring feedback. Inclusion - many people in pseudo “managerial” roles with no contribution to the company. Toxic environment. Creepy focus on internal certificates and comic 7 principles obsession but zero coding and architect culture; obsolete way of communication and no usage of modern toolset. It’s not rare to see solutions as a pile of garbage. Low salaries (if you are not lucky one from history) and nearly zero career progression opportunities (pso dept. is stagnaging). If you are not parked as useless manager, you end up as a shovel.

Pros

There is much that is good about working for Neopost UK. Despite what people may feel personally as a consequence of their reasons for leaving, it is still one of the best companies I have ever worked for and while some would grumble about the day to day frustrations with their jobs, the tenure is impressive so something is clearly working well! It's evolution over recent years has been considerable and that is down to the hard work of many across the UK organisation. Peer to peer support from the mid layer down is incredibly strong. Selling points would be: Family friendly, paternal, encouraging, inclusive, close knit, supportive, career developing, recognition, training, competitive compensation

Cons

The over-riding challenge here is the top layers of management. It's much like a dysfunctional family and you'll observe many behaving in a childish way. Sadly many in the senior leadership team are lacking in substance, direction, compassion, entrepreneurship and the courage of their conviction. Few speak out honestly for fear of retribution from their peers and from above - they just nod in the right places, at the right people, at the right time. Management style is often dogmatic and inauthentic. The company head office is in the process of moving locations, losing its historic connection with the Romford township, and this will inevitably cause some disruption to the current employees. Some have already left and others are seeking alternative jobs due to the uncertainties of the future location. The evolution of the UK organisation has come a long way but sadly it's not enough for Neopost to be seen as a strong player in some of its adjacent markets (e.g. software). It lacks enough internal innovation or knowledge to be seen as a threat or a viable partner. It is still a moderately transactional sales process with targets set at short intervals and old school pipeline management (and managers) which is not representative of the software sales environment. It's for these reasons I wouldn't recommend.
