Pros

- Friendly and well-intentioned people at team level - Supportive colleagues who genuinely try to help one another - Interesting product and opportunity to gain experience - Hybrid working is promoted in principle

Cons

- Lack of structure, clear processes, and consistent planning - Senior leadership is heavily involved in campaign/project-level detail, resulting in micromanagement rather than strategic direction - “Brainstorming” and new ideas are often introduced at the last minute, sometimes even after projects are already live, creating confusion and rework - Limited autonomy — changes are frequently driven by personal preference rather than best-practice rationale, which reduces learning, confidence, and motivation - Feedback is inconsistent; work is often rewritten without explanation, making it difficult to improve or grow - Priorities shift frequently with little context, contributing to a reactive and high-pressure environment - Onboarding for new starters lacks structure, particularly around systems and internal processes - Many colleagues appear overworked and burnt out; overtime feels normalised and work–life balance is poor - health support and benefits could be significantly improved as a company, promoting healthcare - Hybrid working is promoted externally, but flexibility has reduced over time - Employee feedback requesting more flexibility (via quarterly surveys) has not been acted on; instead, increased mandatory office attendance has been introduced - Office infrastructure does not currently support increased attendance — there are not enough desks, and hot-desking often leaves employees without a workspace - Wi-Fi reliability is poor, making customer calls and virtual meetings difficult - No Christmas bonus or recognition was offered despite company growth and a strong financial year

Fun and inclusive work environment. You are able to do work that helps other peoples lives.

Cons

Moving locations frequently due to fast-paced growth. Really wasn't an issue though.

Pros

Talented individuals across different teams

Cons

Negative reviews and covered up with positive reviews but pls go back and read carefully. Internal processes and expectations can feel inconsistent, with limited structure or clear guidance in some teams; Onboarding can be quite unstructured, making it difficult to build confidence early on; Communication and feedback are not always clear or aligned, which can create confusion and unnecessary pressure; Hybrid flexibility is essentially discussed, but in practice can feel inconsistent depending on the person; At times, decisions appear to prioritise short-term operational needs over employee experience
