Pros

Nicely decorated offices close to city centre. The workforce contained a number of nice, professional very hard working employees.

Cons

Limited access to parking for commuters. Management style and culture with unchecked behaviours that could create negative environment. Swift sharp exit applied to those who were deemed unsuitable / or did not fit in during probationary period.

Draycir Response

Thank you for your review, we value and respect all of our staff, we try to ensure Draycir is a nice and friendly place to work and with a good work life balance, this is our number one priority but when new members of staff join us and they unfortunately upset other members of staff, like any other company we have to take the appropriate action. This has only happened on one occasion. While it is true Draycir has limited parking, Draycir does reimburse all members of staff if they have to park their cars in a pay and display carpark. Onsite parking is on a weekly Rota system, so everyone takes it in turn to park onsite. We fail to understand the comment about swift sharp exits, the average length of service of our employees is 7 years+, additionally it is worth noting that Draycir offer all of their staff benefits package normally only offered to executive managers and above. Since the start of COVID all Draycir staff have the choice of working from home.

Pros

- People here are very easy to work with. They are highly skilled, have high working standards, but also very approachable and eager to help. - The company and the managers really work hard to make sure the workplace is safe and comfortable for everyone. People are very respectful and take topics like harassment or bullying very seriously. To me, this is by far the most comfortable and socially safest workplace I've ever been. - Good coding process. New code must go through quite a few validations like reviewer comments, unit tests and automated test run, code coverage check, dependency check, description check list, etc. The code cannot merge if it does not meet all the criteria. I learned a lot about coding quality from here. - The company appreciate and notice results. No need to wait for years to get promoted. No seniority-first rule. If you perform, you will be rewarded. - Flat organization. You can easily reach and talk to anyone. You can even discuss about books or games with the CEO if you want.

Cons

- No shared standard across different projects. If you switch teams or projects, you might have to learn a new working process since each team work in a different ways/styles. - When in rush, the working process becomes unorganized. Steps like requirement gathering and refinment got skipped and things got pushed out with lower quality. - Document process and tool can be improved.
