Exciting place to work if you like startups and purpose-driven teams - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso HumanForest

I absolutely love working at Forest. The people are some of the nicest, genuinely kind humans I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Everyone is so open to help, we're all pulling on the same string, trying to make a difference in how London moves. And that excitement that we're doing something meaningful is really tangible; you can feel how proud people are to work here and its quite infectious. I also love how much autonomy you get - no matter what role you're in, you're given a lot of trust and ownership to get your work done. It's probably not for everyone - it can be very fast-paced and the expectations are high, so you can't really coast or fly under the radar. But personally, I absolutely love how little red tape there is - if I want to make a change I make a case and go for it. It's been incredibly rewarding to see the impact I've been able to have in the time I've been here.

It's a start-up, so things can be chaotic. I think sometimes we make decisions too fast without fully understanding the consequences. Also, career trajectories aren't linear - there's no set step by step list of what you need to achieve in order to progress. But I feel like the people who work hard and excell at what they do are definitely rewarded.

- Supportive environment where people are friendly and approachable - Leadership is open and transparent, you can talk to anyone regardless of their position - Good benefits and overall positive work-life balance - Freedom to improve processes and ways of working, with trust placed in teams - Healthy attitude towards tech: there’s an understanding that things can go wrong and that improvement takes time

- Internal communication could be improved; sometimes it’s not clear what’s happening across different areas - More focus could be put on being data-driven and consistently measuring impact
