Business Outlook

Pros

People are generally friendly and willing to help if you have any problems. The office on Marsham Street is modern and a nice place to work.

Cons

Depending on the team you're working in, projects can move slowly and the technology stack is outdated. The Croydon office isn't the most inspiring of places to work.
