Crowdcube reviews

Be aware this is upper class white male club. Very little diversity, and this is not something the leadership see as a problem. If you are someone who does not fit this description you will have a difficult time integrating and then later one being promoted. Redundancy or people getting fired for no reasons is common. Target are completely random and then the leadership is surprised that the team is not meeting them. The current industry situation is difficult which does not help but some bad decisions were made by the leadership which created even a worth financial situation for the company. Sinking Ship.

The Product leadership is very weak. The current CPO lacks key product competencies and leadership skills to guide a new team because she is lacking basic people management skills and experience. There is no trust and a lot of two facing. Prepare to be thrown under a bus and used as cover. It's a place where you cannot challenge freely and cannot be seen to be smarter. Insecurities are easily triggered. When people don’t have full range of knowledge and skills needed to lead effectively, they do not want others around who possess these qualities. With a weak CPO the product function is not empowered. There is a no direction and guidance from the product leadership- which leads into a lot of time being wasted, confusion, and running around in circles. Low team morale is pervasive. Team complaints of burnout is not uncommon. This is a toxic lead team that thrives on people who will do as they're told and not ask any questions. Decisions on performance are made on a personal whim as opposed to merit. It is not a healthy product environment. The PM role is more of a project management role than an actual product role. You won't learn or follow good product management principles here. The products are not built in an Agile way - it's built once and deployed, and from there it's down to bug fixes. It's not a data driven product team. There are no metrics guiding product management and what success for a product looks like. Making decisions based on data is not the norm. A highly dysfunctional and disorganized place. A place to avoid if talented. You've been warned.
