Pros

CEO is authentic and is genuinely passionate about providing a helpful, user friendly, affordable service to immigrants around the world. Great culture built on empathetic partnerships and making sound data driven decisions.

Cons

Working on providing more guidance around internal career development. They have put brand new programs in place to address this need and it is exciting to see how this is developing.

Thanks so much for sharing your feedback! I'm really glad that you're part of the team. Thanks for all that you do to build great products for our customers. It's also helpful to see the specific areas you value -- we'll continue to double down on those areas (especially making an impact on our customers lives!). I also appreciate that re-orgs can be hard and really appreciate you noting that rapid growth sometimes necessities this so we align our organization with our size + strategic priorities. I always welcome feedback if there is anything we can do better. Thanks again for your note and for being part of the team!

Pros

Market rate salary and great benefits.

Cons

Shockingly bad management. Huge staff turnover for such a small London office and there is a good reason for that - management.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I'm glad you mention you have been happy with our compensation and benefits, I am really saddened to read about your overall experience. We take your comment about the high turnover and management style very seriously. We have lost one employee since March 2020 when COVID started. Every employee matters and we were sorry to lose this person. We deeply care about our teams and we will work even harder to continue to improve our employee environment and make sure we treat all our employees fairly. If you'd ever be open to meeting with me so I can learn more, I would appreciate the opportunity to hear your perspective. This will help us improve as a business and help us fulfill our mission, which we care about deeply.
