Pros

- Great people to work with. - 10% day to use time to learn things for yourself. - XP programming and good DevOps structure

Cons

- Hard to have conversations with HR. Rules exist just because. - Overall package is lacking (no work from home benefits for example) - Not willing to publish salaries or salary bands just because they would have more work because of it. - Can't work remote inside the country without 2 weeks notif. Can't work remote outside the country at all. - No local manager, every manager is in London and that creates a feeling of almost outsourcing in the Lisbon office. - Overall there seems to be no trust in employees.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts from our New York office. We have a great team; our purpose and culture continue to be 'stand out' and some of the reasons so many colleagues stay with us longer term. We are collaborative and progressive and everyday we contribute to learnings for generations to come.

Thank you for sharing your review. We kicked off our second Career Growth Week so far this year with a focus on feedback which underpins growth at every level. Alongside the flagship sessions, colleagues took part in a wide range of virtual events across the week. These included popular sessions like building skills through feedback, Forward Talk, AI-powered feedback, “expert” careers and mentoring panels, the Facilitation Marathon, and a LinkedIn personal branding workshop, as well as practical learning through the Level up: boost your skills and Talent Attraction sessions. Perhaps look out for the next one which will be in a few months time. Colleague development is core to our organisation.
