Pros

Smart and talented people within the engineering and product teams.

Cons

Management has created a toxic culture within the company, CEO and COO are very aggressive with emotional issues, lots of great talent has been pushed out of the company. Company does not have a real direction and people are constantly leaving.

We’re sorry to read that your experience of Qubit was so negative during your time. As you mention, we are lucky to have teams of talented employees at Qubit and want to make sure everyone has the best experience possible. Most importantly we welcome you to talk more about some of your issues directly. In the meantime I wanted to address some of your comments considering that they seem to be out of context to where Qubit is today. In 2020 we have operated the lowest in recent history over the past 6 months and therefore we are surprised to see the statement around constant leavers due to the culture. During remote working we have been maintaining culture and collaboration through events and opportunities to connect, which have been positively received throughout the company. The CEO has had a virtual coffee with every single employee since Summer in the hope that any concerns are raised in an open, informal setting and can be remediated. We have operated daily ELT meetings, addressing employee concerns. We have also maintained a weekly All Hands with open forum to discuss issues. Leadership also endeavours to maintain transparency regarding direction and strategy via weekly company wide meetings and ongoing opportunities to feed back or voice opinions, especially given that we are working within a fast paced industry where we often have to act on change quickly. Our customer performance on the back of our technology beat all records, and this has resulted in the team having to deliver more and work harder to ensure the success of our customers in these challenging times. Sometimes this pace of change and the challenges in today's market serving our customers isn't for everybody, and we will continue to work hard to ensure everyone feels included in the journey. We don't recognise the version of Qubit you present or your suggestions; it does not align with company wide surveys, other Glassdoor reviews, feedback taken in exit interviews, or the current sense of achievement across the business as we continue to post growing new revenue bookings despite challenging trading conditions. However, we do recognise that this was not your experience and as a business we are truly sorry. We are always open to doing things differently and if there were aspects of the direction or culture that you wanted clarity on we most certainly could've helped you with this whilst you were at Qubit. We would still appreciate the opportunity to further understand your feedback and how we can best implement any constructive suggestions, please reach out via hr@qubit.com at any time. Wishing you the best of luck with your future career.

Pros

You'll learn a lot, very quickly, there's a multitude of completely different technologies and problem domains at play. The teams iterate quickly and deploy regularly with a lot of control over their direction.

Cons

Personally, I felt a little lost as to what I should really be working on at some times, but that could've been rectified if I'd really spoken up about it. It just means that you really need to take charge as an individual to get the most out of Qubit, big personalities really stand out in a good way. This is a good thing for some, not so much for others.
