Pros

Very communicative, supportive, fun, boss(es) who is so great to work with and for. We have a great working relationship and they always have my back and thank me for going over and above my role. The company gives you the freedom to work hours that suit you/your bosses, find gaps and fill them with solutions rather than lots of red tape and boosts you to the the best version of yourself at work both professionally and personally. Most settled and happy I've been in a job. Really believe the company, it's mission, what it stands for and love being a part of the growth and hype.

Cons

If you are the kind of person that loves processes, policies, structure, clear guidelines that it wouldn't be the right job for you. Whilst there are many processes put in place, it's not the same compared to a big corporate so if you are new you have to fend for yourself a bit and create the job. For me, that's not a bad thing and fits my way of working and instead creates opportunities for you that other people would normally fill.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
