Pros

There is a fantastic social side! With a group of friendly, fun people working there with things going on after work most nights. Pay is very good (for a reason) - Great way to make some good money in the short term / in-between or even looking for other jobs! Free lunch on a Friday + opportunity to win more food throughout the week; often granted with credits so you can enjoy the food from the comfort of your own home.

Cons

Was massively miss sold the job as I was told it would be the perfect opportunity for graduates with good progression, responsibilities, etc. Couldn't be more different! Extreme pressure from an inexperienced manager, 0 chance of progression or horizontal movement, intense micromanagement and not using degree at all. Just felt wasted, unutilized and stressed. The job itself is talking to restaurant owners all day on the phone till 7 pm, with some (if not most) not being the most business savvy individuals or most organized. The job is for a certain type of individual if you're fine with bashing out the phones all day and dealing with B2B (B standing for Basic) then it's a great opp to make some money! Although I wouldn't see it as long term. And don't be miss led by the temptation to work for a glitzy startup, the 'sales' team is just bolted onto the side of what seems to be a good company at the HQ (London) which is a shame! It is just a highly repetitive telesales job, which isn't mentioned at all on job spec or interviews. Very limited training (3 days) of company background, then its learning on the job from colleagues.

Pros

A fascinating company that is really pushing the boundaries in the food delivery space. Very progressive thinkers and talented people

Cons

Started to fee like a corporate towards the end. There are so many processed that it took weeks to get anything approved and this can be demotivating at times.
