ThinkTank Maths reviews

- All words here that are not quoting someone else constitute my opinion. - With the possible exception of one, the 5-star reviews on this page are not real – they do not correspond to any actual employee of the company. It’s not hard to set up fake accounts for writing fake reviews. They should be ignored. - An account of some of the history of this company and its predecessor can be found by googling: "The strange and unpleasant death of ThinkTank Mathematics Ltd" It is very enlightening and I recommend anyone who is considering joining this company to read it and take the information very seriously. - The other reviews are accurate, but very understated. I would highlight the following: "The CTO is the husband of the CEO and there is a huge age gap with the researchers. Basically, everybody is scared to stand up to them." "When management got involved in projects there was a really bad communication problem. I couldn't understand anything that the CTO was talking about. He didn't seem to understand basic mathematics, but he was absolutely certain that we were all wrong and he would get very emotional and sometimes shout at us. He also seemed to obsess about small details of our lives and often we'd have to congregate around him so he could lecture at us (sometimes for hours) about how to live our lives according to his own philosophy" "Needless to say, that was frustrating, especially because scientifically he (the CTO) not even was incorrect, but didn't make any sense." "You'll never get to meet customers, never make any impact on business, never know what happens to your reports and results" "We would frequently be expected to stay late at the office without notice or good reason, due to poor timekeeping by members of the management team" "The management, who are the publicly facing image of the company, are a married couple which is a huge red flag. They openly insult staff and only come into the office late despite having strict rules for everybody else." "It is very stressful because we all have to pretend that the publicly facing "chief mathematician" is technical, when he has no clue about basic mathematics." "There is a toxic culture of ... irrational behaviour from management." - A new page for the company appears to have been set up in order to disassociate from the reviews on this page.
