Pros

There are very few positives left to working here.

Cons

For a period RES had been a nice place to work but since a poorly executed reorganisation last year all of the digital solutions team has been miserable and most of us looking for the exit. We have no real direction or clear product goals and it has never been communicated as to why the restructuring happened or what its purpose was. There is a distinct lack of leadership in the business with just a vp of product who is never around and a product strategist with little clue how to run a software team. A team lead was fired though they were helping to improve things. and nobody seems to know why. This has killed all morale in the team and 2 developers have already found new jobs. Others have said on here there is no career progression at all and the recent pay rises weren’t good. They pay bonuses but they’re not always that great. Seeing that last year was horrible for many of us I expected that we’d be treated better than this.

Pros

Everyone I work with at RES is high caliber. People are intelligent, good communicators and are pleasant to work with. Management is clear on expectations from staff. RES has the resources to outsource help for any pain points, which is great and leads to faster resolution. The company has already been around for 50 years so it is stable and feels safe to invest your time and energy into.

Cons

Career progression is stunted because people are happy here and stay long term, which means elevated positions are harder to come by.
