      Outdated tech stack

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are generally nice and friendly. Company culture and mission is good

      Cons

      Tech stack is outdated and accumulates a lot of tech debt. Spend most of my time in meetings, which isn't very productive. Pay is lower compared to other companies including startups. Also strange that most senior and lead engineers don't know much about architecture...

      Hi there, Thank you very much for your feedback and we are so pleased you enjoyed working with the people here and towards the mission! Your point around the stack and technical debt is interesting. We do assign time monthly to cleaning up tech debt and introduce new technology. We're always focused on improving our ways of working as we continue to scale. Thanks again for the feedback, it is extremely useful!

      Overall very positive experience

      Pros

      Great culture. I was never shamed for making a mistake and was in a supportive team environment. There was great diversity within the team. Lots of opportunities to progress within different areas of the business. Good starting training and experience for any grad. Genuinely cares as a company about customers and employees.

      Cons

      They are in need of more staff, and the teams can be put under strain at times due to too much workload. More time dedicated to project work would give employees a better chance at progressing their careers.
