Pros

Good working hours Great products Good Benefits including pension and health care plan Greatest bunch of employees to work work with Lovely modern office

Cons

Management practice bullying and favouritism, and strangely the bullying culture seems to be facilitated by HR and management since they do not intervene. All department except Sales are significantly underpaid. Seem to be an increasing workload, new software products coming on board will little pay increases. Sadly, they will continue to lose high potential employees because of this Very poor talent management - little interest in optimising employees’ skills. Little opportunity to progress and where there is opportunity again little pay increase to reflect promotion and achievement. Micromanagement culture. Employees don't seem to have much of a voice. Very US-Centric therefore sometimes fails to meet needs or customers by properly localising products and material. Many aspects of the software are left undeveloped. Software company with no qualified data, software or technical specialists/manager or director in UK. This has already led to poor decisions that impact both the customer and employees.

Pros

Great coworkers in the engineering group. Accommodating when "stuff happens" (sick kid, car breakdown etc) . Product/platform was designed for a very noble purpose.

Cons

The engineering group is being overworked to the point of burnout. Staff have left in droves and where it was common to see staff with 10-15 years of tenure, most new staff now leave within 1-2 years. Poor compensation. Staff are paid under market value and not given consistent performance reviews, raises or paths for advancement. Employees are offered new titles and greater responsibility without corresponding pay adjustments. Improvements have been promised for several years but have been slow to roll out. Heroism is encouraged (12-16 hour work days).
