I have been working at Skimlinks full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Very respectful of employees that give their all, in return the company will invest in you and develop you.
Very smart and intelligent teams across the business.
Company has a great vision and is very respected by their clients.
Cons
More an individual personnel basis. Some people don't have a positive attitude to change and feel they are entitled. No fault of the company, itself.
Advice to Management
Look for people with positive attitudes, above all.
Keep doing what the business aims to do and continue to invest in development and take feedback from CEO to office manager.

Pros
The best culture and colleagues you can find. Colleagues who watch out for one another and care about each other. Best company Xmas party I have ever experienced. Nice office. Fast paced and exciting, but not stressful.
Cons
Honesty - senior leadership very often ignores problems rather than addressing them.
Direction - does senior leadership know what's next and where we are going?
Respect - senior leadership lacks respect for other people's opinions

Pros
All in all Skimlinks is a great place to work. CEO Alicia Navarro and co-founder Joe Stepniewski place a high degree of emphasis on ensuring that employees are comfortable, growing in their field and ultimately happy. Having the chance to interact with a variety of teams and management, I can tell you that everyone is passionate, and collaborative, which makes for the kind of work environment an ambitious person will thrive in.
Cons
To be honest, no real cons. If considering working here, just make sure you are passionate about online technology. If you are, best of luck in the interview process!

I worked at Skimlinks full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
I worked for Skimlinks for a number of years, and like any startup, there were certainly ups and downs (that's what you sign up for if you want to join a young tech company) but I left feeling exceptionally grateful for the friends made, experience garnered, and significant responsibility I was given at Skimlinks.
These are sociable, supportive people doing innovative work. Employees are encouraged to speak up and heard, while management is impressively transparent about numbers, investment and other high level discussions. It's a great place to be if you want to learn about how companies are run.
Over the years, junior team members have consistently been promoted to more senior roles, and it's the kind of place that will look to its own before trying to recruit from elsewhere. That's valuable.
Cons
Skimlinks does its best to innovate quickly, which means that priorities can change as circumstances do. If you're the type of person who needs to know exactly what they'll be doing in 18 months time, it may not be a great fit.
Advice to Management
Keep it up!

I worked at Skimlinks full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Skimlinks has a good UK presence, if you're in tech in London it is connected (both in and out of the office) with other startups in the area. Nice office culture and lots of friendly co-workers who are always game for a pint. Located in great area of London. Not very demanding in terms of office hours and effort.
Cons
The engineering culture sometimes at odds or in miscommunication with management, which often led to frustration or stress for employees and for management. The laid back work attitude doesn't press you, so if you are ambitious you might feel frustrated with it.
