A place where I had my biggest professional growth
Pros
- This company holds employees to a high standard, this including all my managers. They gave me clear expectations and care about my growth. They created opportunities for me to grow myself and create impact for the business. - Really accommodating/ suportive. I felt it strongly during covid and when I had family crisis. We even have covid paid leave to sort those kind of things out. I think this is really positive for diversity and inclusion. - Much less politics than other places I have been. The company is still in rapid growth phase and people are too busy getting stuffs done rather than fighting with each other. - I quite like people I work with. High achievers and fast learners. And everyone is nice & collaborative possibly because the culture filters out those who are not
Cons
- In many teams you are busy 4-6pm London time because of meetings with US west coast. You need to actively manage your work life balance particularly if you need to pick up kids by 6pm. WFH helps a lot. And the company/ team respects people's boundaries. For example I tell my team I need to stop at 5:30pm everyday and the US colleagues would accomodate and get up early for me.
