Pros

Xceptor is small enough that an individual can make a real difference, but large enough to have a global reach across the world's largest Financial Services businesses. I ensure that Xceptor's technology strategy supports the business strategy and vision. My role is both technically challenging and strategically rewarding — balancing application architecture, Cloud Native transformation, platform scalability, and security with real-world client needs. The culture is collaborative and intellectually curious. I’ve worked closely with talented engineers, product leaders, and domain experts who are passionate about solving complex data problems. Leadership is accessible and open to new ideas, and there’s a genuine commitment to continuous improvement: we're embracing the opportunities of AI and have recently implemented a SaaS-first release model.

Cons

As with any high-growth company, priorities can shift quickly, and navigating ambiguity is part of the job. The pace is fast, and expectations are high — but that’s also what gets me out of bed in the morning.

Here's to the next 10 years :)

Pros

Great people and enjoyable workspaces. Opportunity to learn new skills and tools at a consistent pace. No stagnation here! Excellence is recognised and awarded. Flexible working is great for those with families.

Cons

Departments often work in isolation which can cause confusion and sometimes overlap in tasks/lack of awareness of current projects. Often juggling multiple projects with short deadlines and not enough staff coverage.

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We're delighted to hear of all the positives you have mentioned and hope that the positives continue to increase during your next 5 years with us :). We agree that we have made big headway with improving our office spaces, and Guildford is next. We have been working with a group of employees to prioritise investment in Guildford. We predict the work will be carried out by the end of the year. Watch this space and thank you for your honest feedback!
