Pros

Best company I ever worked at! Always had a lot of opportunity to improve my technical skills. Lots of great people to work with and learn from. Management, specifically the CIO, that cares about the staff.

Cons

Work was a bit addicting sometimes so I worked long hours. But nobody forced or even encouraged me to do that. The company is growing fast. That's not everyone's cup of tea. There's less structure at a fast growing and already large company than at more settled companies. That can be good (opportunity) or bad (can feel chaotic).

Hi and thanks for the review. I'm glad that you seemed to enjoy your time with us. We are growing fast which is very exciting and we are an incredibly vibrant and friendly place to work. I'm clearly not sure when you left us but if it was recently, I hope that you will have noticed the additional focus we are placing on our customers and their needs. We are completely restructuring our Customer Service Center to be able to respond more effectively and we are doing more listening to our customers than ever before. This is not just about the Customer Service Center though at the recent Town Halls, Ian spoke at length about everyone's responsibility, whatever their role, in making our products and services match and exceed our customer's needs. Thanks for the feedback and I wish you well in whatever you are doing now Ryan
