Pros
- Collaborative Work Environment: The atmosphere is generally collaborative supporting each other extensively.
- Flexible Work Hours: Complete autonomy over our schedules, allowing us to manage our hours as long as we meet deadlines.
- Supportive Colleagues: Colleagues are always available to help out and don't expect anything in return.
- Diverse Workforce: There is a strong emphasis on inclusivity and diversity.
Cons
- Low Salary for Workload: Pay does not reflect high-cost living areas
- Limited Career Progression: There are very few clear opportunities for advancement or pay raises. Leading to boredom and career stagnation.
- Lack of Recognition: Recognition is provided to the same few people and not shared across the entire workforce.
- Workload and Burnout: The workload can be overwhelming, especially during busy periods, leading to frequent late nights and burnout.
- Unfair KPIs for Bonuses: Recent KPI changes, such as linking staff retention to bonuses, feel unfair, especially when the company’s lack of development opportunities and promotions is part of the reason people leave.
