Pros

- Modern, open plan office - Passionate creators and staff - Good cause and tapped in to what students need - Huge range of accessible resources for a wide range of topics

Cons

It's disappointing to see that management have not learned from previous incidents, leading to more reduction in staff numbers. Making junior staff members, many of whom were recently students themselves, redundant before Christmas and after only a month at the company in some cases really goes against what the company is supposed to be about. It's a real shame that their passion for improving employment access and conditions for young people doesn't seem to extend to their own staff.

Pros

Mission is excellent and teams on the ground are thoroughly dedicated to what they do. Despite all the challenges they are innovative, enthusiastic and really care about making a difference. Cross functional work is great and Dev team is exceptional

Cons

Founders failed the transition to becoming C-suite. Whiplash decisions and total absence of change management makes for a fractious work environment. Employee NPS consistently negative. Pay is pretty uncompetitive too
