Vantaggi

Some of the people that survived the massacre of Nov 2019 when 30 members were laid off unexpectedly are amazing people but that's it.

Svantaggi

Come here to do your worst work! I can confidently say that letting go 25 people of all seniorities (most of them based on their salary so Autotrader can save some $$$) while promising they were safe for months when we were moving to a smaller office is extremely disgusting. Don't listen to any of these 5 star lies. It pains me to write this because Convertus used to be a great place with very low wage (we're talking 30k for junior role after being bumped to 40k designer after buy out) but experiences that were process oriented but the barest design bones ever. Think: 2 days for homepage mockup with no research, monthly design projects with 2 steps in the process (wireframe, hi-fi), scared of HR or HR not getting rid of bad apples and lack of transparency from above. Amplify this with the new "leadership" of a corporate hog like Autotrader and now my friends who still work there are just surviving so they aren't unemployed. Don't give this a try, I warn you now or 3 months later you'll either be fired for no reason or looking for a new role

Vantaggi

The team used to be a tight nit, fast working team. Dogs in the office.

Svantaggi

Everything. Since the takeover by Trader, the company has been in steady decline, to the point where 1/3 of the team were let go. I have never seen a company so mismanaged at every level. This company won’t be here in 6 months. If I was to speak to a potential new hire, I would tell them to run for the hills, but it’s very clear that there is going to be no such thing as a “new hire” in this company, given that Trader are slowly winding the company down. Entire teams have been moved to Trader head office. The rest have been cut to their bare bones. They are no longer looking for new business. We can’t even support our existing client base. The offices have moved to a space 1/3 of the size, and if that isn’t an indicator of what is to come, then I don’t know what is. Whether you are a prospective hire, or a potential customer, stay away from this business. It will be the best decision you could make.
