      Thank you for sharing your experience. We genuinely value feedback from people who have been part of the Kurtosys journey. Kurtosys is a business in deliberate, active growth. With that comes an elevated pace, higher performance standards, and organisational change that does not always feel comfortable in the moment. This is a reality of scaling, and one we are transparent about. The demands we place on our teams reflect the ambition of what we are building, and we look for people who are energised by that environment. We are proud of the culture our people have built, and the collegial, supportive dynamic you acknowledged is something we invest in and protect. We do hear that the pace and volume of change created friction in your experience, and we take that seriously as a data point. On communication and process alignment, these are areas any organisation at our stage of growth continues to refine. We have dedicated focus here and will continue to hold ourselves to a high standard. On the point of staff turnover, we would gently push back here. Our retention has improved consistently year on year since 2022, and that trajectory reflects a workplace people are choosing to stay in. We understand that an individual's experience can feel at odds with the broader picture, and we respect that. But the data tells a different story to the one suggested here. If you would like to continue the conversation confidentially, our HR team remains available.

      Pros

      The people. Genuinely some of the smartest, most resilient, and collaborative people I’ve worked with. Teams consistently go above and beyond for one another, often succeeding despite the environment rather than because of it. There is a strong sense of camaraderie at peer level, and many individuals care deeply about doing great work and supporting those around them.

      Cons

      Kurtosys prides itself on carefully curated narratives about culture, growth, and people-first values, yet the day-to-day experience reflects a far less polished reality. The people are exceptional — collaborative, hardworking, and often the only reason projects succeed. Unfortunately, they operate within an environment defined by toxic dynamics, unrealistic expectations, and leadership that frequently lacks both technical competence and strategic clarity. Direction shifts without accountability, decisions are driven by ego rather than insight, and those doing the actual work are left to absorb the consequences. “Culture is built in the moments between deadlines,” a phrase leadership likes to quote — and in those moments, the culture is not empowering, it is corrosive. While leadership speaks fluently about transparency, empathy, and psychological safety, these values rarely translate into practice. Trust is conditional, communication is performative, and professionalism at senior levels is inconsistent at best. Growth is framed as opportunity, but more often manifests as burnout, constant firefighting, and an expectation to deliver the impossible with unwavering positivity. For anyone seeking stability, respect, and competent leadership, this is not an environment that nurtures happiness or sustainable careers — unless you are comfortable watching the ship being steered by people who do not understand how it works, while being told to celebrate the journey.

      Thank you for taking the time to share this, and for three to four years as part of the Kurtosys story. The depth of this review reflects someone who genuinely cared about the organisation, and we read it in that spirit. What you said about our people resonates deeply. The talent, resilience, and sense of shared purpose across our teams is something we hear consistently, and it is the part of Kurtosys we are most proud of. Every organisation at our stage of growth is on a journey, and that journey is not always linear. Scaling a business in a demanding industry means navigating complexity, adapting quickly, and asking a great deal of our people. We know that experience does not feel the same for everyone, and we take seriously the responsibility that comes with that. On the phrase you referenced: we mean it sincerely. Culture is built in the moments between deadlines, and it is a standard we hold ourselves to, not a line we recite. It reflects an ongoing commitment, not a claim of perfection. We are a business that believes in continuous improvement, and feedback like this, however difficult to read, contributes to that process. Our leadership team is actively invested in the experience people have day to day. That work does not stop. We wish you well in what comes next, and if you would ever like to share more with us directly, our HR team remains available in confidence.
