Pluspunten

A lot of very nice co-workers, great kitchen facilities, free breakfast/fruit. Play games on lunch times when certain management was not in. Great Dev Manager, really cared about his team.

Minpunten

The way the business was run as a whole was very archaic, no flexi time, if you are later than the 8:30am start (even by a few minutes) you were required to log this into a Bradford calculation which on repeat offences you'd lose potential sick days. No casual clothes, shirt and trousers for men, then whatever for women. Majority of staff were severely under paid. Too top heavy with minimal care for the development side of the company, 2 sales orientated Directors and 1 HR Director (who was such a lovely person), so development was under represented. Theres also a lot of emphasis on working over your hours with no overtime pay during development pushes which felt like every single day. Unrealistic expectations on requirements, Agile development was dropped due to not fitting the demands of 'we needed all of this yesterday', Unit testing was non existent because it didn't fit in the time scales, then surprise surprise a lot of time was spend fixing bugs that would have been caught by tests.

Pluspunten

Free tea /coffee /fruit /bread /crisps

Minpunten

Not a lot of opportunity for commission. Expensive product, very niche. Not easy to generate new business due to this. External sales trainer was probably the worst person I have ever met. Learned nothing from them the entire time I was there. Micromanagement is constant Completely inflexible. Expected unpaid overtime. Judged quality of work by the amount of time you were sat at your desk. Mandatory lunch break at 1pm

Pluspunten

When I started, the company was already in transition to a more modern business model. There has been a change in management in certain areas, the work is exciting and modern, and there are now excellent opportunities for professional growth and development.

Minpunten

Currently, the business is fully onsite, but there is the flexibility to work from home when needed. Hopefully, that will change in the near future.
