Fast paced and exciting

Pros

Farfetch is fast paced and challenging, but fun. It is diverse both in cultural and social demographics and experience within teams which allows for greater opportunity for knowledge exchange. It is quite social and engaging, with quite a flat heirarchy, allowing for closer contact with senior leadership. You feel valued and rewarded for your contribution.

Cons

As in any fast paced environment, it is often difficult to see the wood from the trees. Constantly moving at a million miles an hour comes with its own challenges, but you can thrive if this is your style of working.

Thanks for your positive feedback! Building a diverse community of Farfetchers is at the heart of our business, so we're really pleased to receive your comments. We're committed to supporting our people with their mental well-being. In London, we’ve created a Manager workshop on “Improving Psychological Strength at Farfetch” to help build our manager’s confidence in identifying and addressing any mental health concerns. And we've launched Unmind, a mental well-being platform, with scientifically backed tools to promote health and happiness at work. But, we acknowledge that we're at the beginning of our well-being journey and we're always looking for new and innovative ways to support our people, so watch this space!
