Avantages

Free breakfast on some days if you got in early enough.

Inconvénients

The company has been on a slow decline for years (not from great heights to start with). Applearn have never successfully been able to create a culture or environment worth staying for and turns over around 60% of the staff year on year. Employees are treated appallingly by senior managers, who run the place like bullies in a playground. A truly soulless, depressing place in which the phrase 'you could hear a pin drop on the other side of the room' is a daily reality. Sad. Maybe too late now but managed properly the company had great potential with an interesting product.

I am sorry your experience has not been positive. We do work hard on creating a culture where all of our people can excel and demonstrate their skills, one which is inclusive and one which facilitates team work I believe we have a great team spirit, demonstrated by the camaraderie and bond we have.

Avantages

Some genuinely talented colleagues. Some good technologies.

Inconvénients

Post-Acquisition Chaos: Since the merger with [Other Company], our once efficient product has been lost in a complex and wasteful platform. Lack of Clarity and Planning: Strategic direction is muddled and inconsistent, leading to decreased morale. Slow Development Times: The new platform's complexity has drastically slowed down our development process. Poor Kanban Management: What used to be an efficient system is now plagued with bottlenecks and delays. CTO's Lack of Business Focus: There's an excessive emphasis on over-engineering suitable for a company much larger than ours. This disconnect leads to inefficiencies and disillusionment. Nepotism in Leadership: A clear inner circle operates on their own motivations, often disconnected from actual business needs. Ineffective New Processes: New processes introduced by the CTO were tried but never improved upon based on team feedback. Instead, more meaningless steps were added, creating a disconnect between design and application. Ignored Feedback: There's no effective mechanism for feedback. When given, it's often ignored or bogged down by additional processes. Frustration and Negativity: Team members are worn down, leading to an environment of bitterness and a sense of futility.

Great culture with easy access to leadership who are quick to support with decisions (great in sales :) )

Inconvénients

If you're not comfortable with a fast paced organisation and able to adopt to changes, it might not be for you.
