Pros

Some of the people and culture

Cons

They offer flexibility in every interview but once you start you learn there is absolutely no flexibility. Being a start up run by two guys in their twenties, the management style is extremely poor and the company is run by two rich kids who think they are better than everyone. Driva's strategy is to bring in unqualified young people at University promising a strong career and flexibility then run into the ground all whilst paying nothing. Multiple employees I worked with were looking elsewhere after working there for less than 5 months which I believe says a lot about a business. They think the culture and alcohol on a Friday is enough to keep an employee happy.

Pros

Really inclusive culture in a high performing environment where the company invests in the individuals. Lots of fun and end of month social events and too many lollies to snack on! Hybrid work setting which suited me really well

Cons

Nothing that jumps to mind, thoroughly enjoyed my time here - work plate can get really full given the start-up/scale-up nature.

Pros

Nice office, good location Good tech

Cons

Extremely toxic culture driven by poor management, micromanagement, gossip, and completely unrealistic workloads. Employees were expected to constantly report to multiple managers while handling pressure that no healthy workplace should normalize. There was very little support, no psychological safety, and a culture that left people burnt out and walking on eggshells. During my time there, I personally witnessed the impact this environment had on people’s mental health — agents regularly breaking down crying in rooms became disturbingly normal. After reading many of the reviews here, it’s clear these issues are not isolated experiences. I would strongly caution anyone considering joining this company.
