    I have been working at 77 Diamonds full-time for more than 3 years

    Pros

    I've been working in 77 Diamonds for over 3 years now. It's been a great experience so far. The company provides internal growth opportunities, and proper training to the team. Benefits are good. The work is challenging and there are always interesting projects to work at. We still have a lot of legacy projects to maintain that we've been migrating to newer systems with newer tech stack. This is simultaneously a... pro and a con, depends on perspective. There's free coffee and fresh fruit for the team, and we have a really nice play room with table tennis and table football. Good work-life balance.

    I worked at 77 Diamonds full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    My experience with 77Diamonds has been nothing else but positive. At the start I have been provided with a first class in-house training as well as offered additional external training after 6 months, in order to progress. People working at the company are very professional and friendly- made some friends for life. I found management very supportive and helpful. Because it is a small company you really get the... taste of how the business operates and feel part of it.

    Cons

    Fast paced environment so I can see that it might not be for everyone. I loved it!

    I have been working at 77 Diamonds full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    The office is central - some great people to work with

    Cons

    I feel as though management were picked randomly from a hat. They didn't bring anything to the company. We'd have group meetings where we'd discuss how we feel and what we'd like to change however that is all they are... meetings nothing will ever change. It's a dead end role, no room for progression.

    Advice to Management

    Pay your staff better- you can't expect people to work crazy hours ( on weekends)

    I worked at 77 Diamonds full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    The only good thing about working at 77 Diamonds were the colleagues. A great group of people.

    Cons

    Management is extremely poor and lacks direction, refusal to acknowledge anything that could improve the business. Have a know it all attitude. The hours were long and the pay was a pittance. Overtime was not paid. A Director used slurs to demean colleagues to their face. Hard work is not well recognised and there is a discrepancy and favouritism between the different teams within the company. Would not recommend... working for this company.

    Advice to Management

    Treating the staff with more respect would go a long way.

    I worked at 77 Diamonds full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    I had a great experience working at 77Diamonds. I worked as frontend developer for more than 2 years. The ambient was great and I felt like the bosses did really care about our well being. Free coffee is a plus! :D

    Cons

    Unfortunatelly the tech stack isn't much up to date, but I was told they would be doing some migrations to better frameworks and updated tech stack pretty soon.

    Advice to Management

    Keep up the good work, and keep your employees happy at all times. Remember, happy employees = better dedication and loyalty. Thank you for the great experience!
