Pros

- High level of responsibility early on

Cons

- Nonexistent work life balance. - Very top down management approach - management will promise a deadline without talking to its developers, and then expect long hours to meet the deadline that was never discussed. - Compensation below market value; only discussed once per year. - Only one main customer; no other projects coming in. - Absolutely no working from home.

Pros

London office in Victoria, easy to reach from most places. Working from home allowed. Free social events most months.

Cons

You'll work for one of the reply group companies, most are very small, and the focus is constantly on getting new clients and marketing. Tech is a afterthought, despite all their marketing hype. Lots of graduates! 90% of my company is fresh grads, while the social side is good they are just used as cheap disposable resources for clients or on the bench doing some marketing work. Experienced hires are rare, and usually treated as 2nd class. They will only promote grads, so if you are coming in as experienced make sure you ask for the top end of the salary band as you will never get any promotion and made to work 2x more than internally promoted grads of the same level. Partners and managers are all very inexperienced, favouritism and politics is rife. (It is a majority Italian family owned company after all)

Pros

There are no discernable pros.

Cons

14 hour days. Little direction upon joining as to expected deliverable details. Offputting management. Overall would run for the hills if they contact you for an interview.
