Pros

Great on the CV, good work-life balance, close contact with lots of talented and motivated people, free food, lots of opportunities to socialise, great effort put in creating that "friendly, fluid, entrepreneurial" environment.

Cons

It often seems like the company puts a lot of effort into projecting an image externally and internally, selling the Farfetch dream. In fact they are so busy trying to maintain and grow the business while selling the amazing Farfetch unicorn story, that the tangible benefits get lost between the cracks. Hierarchy and opportunities for growth are unclear, and many decisions are made behind closed doors with remarkable lack of transparency towards the rest of the staff. Very political, high staff turnover.
