      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We really appreciate it. A big part of our culture is how our teams operate and work together. We try very hard to foster an environment of community and collaboration, where people can work better together than they ever could individually. That can naturally result in a lot of the team building personal friendships that grow beyond their roles and day to day and social activities stemming from this. We provide as much space and opportunity as possible with regular activities for our teams to get to know each other better and bond with their peers through things like team socials and office events; however, no one should feel pressured to take part. Thank you for sharing your experience so that we can continue to improve on our approach and provide an inclusive environment for all. Best, Inés Head of Operations

      Nice environment, but very limited progression

      Pros

      Friendly bunch of people and nice environment. Free food for breakfast and lunch.

      Cons

      Very limited progression here, they do not offer out promotions if you are doing well, you have to present to leadership why you deserve a small pay rise. Very rigid sales process which is set in stone and micro managed. Feedback from sales to leadership isn’t acted upon, and significant changes (such as weekend working or adjustments to commission) are often communicated with little notice. This got very frustrating. 1 female team leader, the rest male. In general, it is very difficult to get your voice heard as a woman here, it is extremely male dominated unfortunately. It feels like a sinking ship for the sales team a lot of the time, which creates a very negative workplace - leadership are fighting a losing battle when they are trying to 'boost morale' sometimes. Blasting music all day when everyone is on the phone is not a good solution.
