Inspirational company, great senior management, a refreshing attitude in the fashion industry.
Pros
Farfetch is an incredible company with a truly inspiring senior management team. It's rare to be pushed and nurtured as much as they do here. Going from a small company to a large one, I've seen a lot of changes and I'm proud to have been a part of this company's growth. The benefits & bonus system is great, with everything from life insurance to corporate gym rates. The fashion industry is notoriously negative: Farfetch is a total exception! It is a digital company in the luxury market and is how all fashion companies should be. The power behind online fashion lies with developers and tech teams, and the Dev team at Farfetch is one of the most inspirational I've ever met.
Cons
When a company grows, there are always problems. Sometimes communication fails between the international offices and higher management. There are negative people who have been brought on in high positions and they are dampening the company values. Senior management doesn't see this as the company is so big now. 1 bad apple can ruin the whole lot. There are certain positions in the company that are underpaid in comparison to competitors. This needs to be addressed or they will lose people who they could nurture and keep in the company longer term.
