Pros

The company offers solid benefits and a genuinely supportive group of colleagues, which makes day-to-day work more enjoyable. There’s relatively low pressure compared to many other organisations, with no constant rush of tight deadlines. Flexible working arrangements are a big plus, including options like compressed hours that allow for a 4-day work week. The company also benefits from a strong and well-recognised brand reputation.

Cons

Career progression can be frustrating. Instead of clear internal promotion pathways, employees often have to apply for new roles and compete with external candidates, and many teams seem to favour hiring from outside. The technology stack feels outdated despite positioning itself as a modern tech-driven company. Strategic direction is unclear and appears to shift frequently, which creates uncertainty. There are recurring redundancies, contributing to low morale across the organisation.
