Pros

The products are cool and there are some big name clients. Some people see great development opportunities. Money isn't skimped for things like travel or Friday drinks.

Cons

Worst place I have ever worked. The CEO is completely toxic, other management figures enable his behaviour, and any staff lucky enough to not be in his firing line keep their heads down and ignore what's happening to their colleagues. Once he has randomly decided that he doesn't like someone, he will pick holes in their work in front of everyone, exclude them from the wider team and do anything he can to force them to resign, before taking more official measures if they won't. This has happened to enough employees to suggest that the problem lies with him, not them.

Pros

Significant learning opportunities from consulting to product development. Opportunity to work with Product, Engineers, Psychs and Designers in delivering value to clients.

Cons

Moving fast. Whilst there are development opportunities to learn, it is much better when I have an opportunity to develop, particularly when working with engineers and product development group. Lots of fun, but lots to absorb. Thank goodness for product management.

Pros

Talegent was a great place to work at while I interned here. I was able to learn new and explore lots of business aspects from the CEO and I felt that he had good trust in me. I had great exposure to senior management and many learning opportunities, while having close-support, which is great when working in a SaaS start-up firm. The company was also very accommodating to my busy schedule which was great.

Cons

At times, I felt thrown into the deep end without as much guidance as I would have liked, though this did push me to learn quickly and adapt.
