Vantaggi

The products are rather advanced compared to the industry, otherwise not many pros to mention. The sales compensation plan as well as the benefits in the UK are rather average.

Svantaggi

They try to match almost every salary expectations because nobody is interested in a career with them. In the beginning they blind new employees with nice trips to the US but often unhelpful training and then let them work totally unsupported. Support from 1st. line management is mostly non-existent, even for important sales related decisions. There is no culture, other than bullying, back-stabbing and hostility in the Reading office. In general the work-environment is rather ridiculous and anything else but professional. The Reading UK office is also based in a business park which is rather hard to reach, often clogged with traffic jams or unreliable public transport.

Vantaggi

There are a handful of genuinely good people throughout the company - not within leadership.

Svantaggi

Employees are expected to do more with less- leading to long hours and unsustainable workload. Work-life balance is talked about but not consistently demonstrated by leadership. The culture felt performance-driven at the expense of people. I often felt that employees were valued more for their output than as individuals. Speaking up, challenging decisions, or offering a different perspective did not feel psychologically safe. The CEO’s town hall messaging reinforces this culture. Statements such as “ If you don’t like it here, you can leave” and that employees who don’t learn Ai will be come “obsolete” came across as lacking empathy. Trust in leadership was low from my perspective.
