Pros

* Reasonable workload and generally good work-life balance. * Offers Skilled Worker visa sponsorship for eligible employees (as of 2026).

Cons

* The company previously invested in hiring and developing fresh graduates, but hiring for junior positions has largely been frozen in recent years. * Annual salary increases are relatively low, and career progression can be slow, particularly for individual contributors. * Employee policies often mirror those of much larger technology companies, while compensation and benefits do not appear to be at a comparable level. * Workforce reductions can occur with limited notice, creating uncertainty for employees. * There is a strong emphasis on office attendance, with limited flexibility for some employees during pregnancy and after returning from maternity leave.
