Pros

1.) remote working 2.) the opportunity to learn

Cons

1.) this is a family business with family politics promoting a toxic work culture 2.) board & investors don't govern executive decision-making or hold family members' decision-making to account 3.) similarities to We Work minus the excessiveness (happens quietly instead) 4.) expectation to work and be available for NZ time zone meetings

Pros

Team are all friendly and well switched on. All professionals in their field and some who are starting their careers who do a great job

Cons

The last 2 years there and about has been more than rocky. Senior manager and leaders leaving every few weeks. Mid 2022 was the redundancies and it will very likely not return to how it was If you are planning to work for the UK branch, it’s not going to be comfortable. You will be sold a dream and none of your input will be taken aboard. It’s better to join a fresh startup and build from scratch than fight fires every single day UK benefits are minimal too. Most are statutory apart from the healthcare, which is slim. And if they have to do another round of redundancies…. Don’t expect anything

Pros

Remote work People team work relentlessly to improve culture Incredibly experienced/diverse team Meet awesome people Phone bill/laptop paid for, car parking for some Good work life balance - respect from senior leaders

Cons

Lack of structure - you're not a start up after 5 years. Too many family/partners of family in the business and in senior roles - should be told in interview Good ideas put forward are never taken up Family too controlling of business - don't let their talent work for them Team members leaving all the time No gift or even christmas card over the christmas period (shocked)
