The employees are very welcoming. Canteen staff are really friendly.

Thank you for your review. We listen to our colleagues, and we hope that you will start to feel this ring true as we continue building on our people-focused culture. Hybrid working is vital to the success of that culture and is meant to strengthen it, not undermine it. Please speak to your manager about any concerns you have with regard to hybrid working. They are there to support you.

Pros

was hired as remote and get to have that honored, but have been openly told no career progression because of remote status. decent pay

Cons

Leadership instability: Seven manager changes during my relatively short tenure. Unrealistic targets: A sales quota set at 1,100% growth (not a typo). Slow product development: Getting anything actioned on the product side takes far too long. Product management turnover: Three product manager changes, resulting in no meaningful deliverables in over three years. Misaligned hiring priorities: Greater emphasis on DEI optics than on hiring people positioned to drive growth. Internal vs. customer focus: More energy spent on internal events than on product enhancements. Lack of accountability (the biggest issue): No one takes ownership. Responsibility gets passed around constantly — for example, client cancellations going unprocessed because they impact someone's numbers. Managers have openly encouraged pushing the work onto someone else rather than handling it.
