Vantaggi
- Many colleagues have long tenure and deep knowledge of the business - People are genuinely nice - Dante is a respected and industry-leading product. - Some teams support reasonable work-life balance (Engineering teams have it tough though)
Svantaggi
- Teams are siloed, which makes collaboration difficult. - Organisation feels top-heavy with too many layers of management. - One of the values is “innovation,” but it doesn’t show up in daily work — many systems, processes and practices are still manual or in need of a refresh. - Employee engagement is outdated and old-fashioned. This shows up in decisions like mandating two days in the office. Employees are adults and should be trusted to decide where they work best. - The company doesn’t take into account that many team members are highly introverted and quite likely neurodivergent. Forcing in-office presence is another sign of not keeping up with modern workplace practices and inclusivity. - The way communication is framed around office attendance can come across as tone-deaf, as if presence equals productivity. - Deadline pressures. There’s a lot of work, not being distributed in balance and not enough resourcing - Long tenure has restricted fresh thinking and slowed the flow of new ideas. The Board feels old-fashioned, which influences culture and decision making. - Marketing, branding, and Investor Relations are badly in need of a major uplift to match the quality of the product. - No learning a development budget for employees - Benefits are lacking - They are stuck in BAU
