FDJ UNITED reviews

The management has turned what was a small company with a sense of community and flexibility (one of its only perks) into a place with limited sense of team work as employees rarely socialise together as they have in the past been reprimanded for such activities. There is also a feeling of hostility in that the previously flexible hours are becoming less so, and working from home occasionally when needed (an easy thing to do in this line of work) is often denied and employees who may well have been in since the early hours are chastised for leaving at 5 o'clock despite doing more than their agreed upon hours. Finally, although the office is not great, it isn't in a bad location, mostly its problems are based around the fact that it is just maintained poorly by the office manager.

Company is extremely disorganized, pays far below the average considering they are in the City. Company has a 'sink or swim' culture when it comes to new starters and you are expected to get results straight away. Your manager rather than helping you overcome any issues you have will simply belittle you in front of your colleagues and frankly make you feel stupid. The code base is an incredible mess and bugs are constantly being introduced by changes ( even with very basic features of the product) due to the badly maintained/spaghetti code. I was lied to during the interview process about what my employment would entail. In a nutshell the pay is not worth the stress of dealing with the horrid code base and you would be far better off looking else where ( I left after a month , increased my salary by nearly 50% and now work in a very pleasant environment; learning from some amazing people)
