Pros

- Really interesting problems to work on. - Great team and smart people to tackle said problems with. - Company mission is a great one (especially for me as I love to eat!). - Some incredible leaders who've landed huge wins at elite tech companies to learn from and work with. - Very open and transparent culture. - Lovely office. - The food!

Cons

- Lack of structure in most things (which can also be a good thing as you can build your own process) can be tiring. - Ambiguity and moving goalposts at times.

Pros

The pay at Deliveroo is fairly good and has reasonable work life balance. If you end up on the right team you can have excellent colleagues and interesting work but it's a huge gamble.

Cons

There are many toxic managers who will absolutely ruin your time here if they take a disliking to you. The exec have been making many employee-hostile decisions since the start of 2023 to the point where it's an unpleasant place to work.

Pros

- Good pay, WFH(Although now changed to 3 days a week) - Really nice gentle people work there(Feels like a 6th form college) - Genuinely mixed demographic - Decent office environment - People and management do try to do their best but the environment is a mess

Cons

- Weak and over promoted management - George Osborne's wife used to be the CFO - Management not trained to deal with toxic employees - Death by shared document - Overrun by MBAs leading major projects without project management background = failure - Preach racial and religious equanimity but ignore massive class bias - Senior management won't even send you Christmas wishes - Management by escalation mindset - Too much responsibility given to junior staff members with zero business or real life experience - HR constantly being dropped in it by clumsy management (They have my sympathy) - Degree of nepotism, former colleagues being brought in quite often - Constant obsession food makes you feel sick after a while(It's just food guys) - Sycophantic culture especially around Will Shu - Lack of personality across the organisation, uninspiring management - Way too high turnover, way too high mental health absences
