They skim on your salary - Junior Developer FX Digital Employee Review

Firstly, thank you for expressing the obvious benefit of working at FX, which is that the team is really nice and friendly! We value feedback and have acknowledged required salary increases in the past and rolled them out, this year we also introduced transparent salary bandings and review these every 6 months. We are a relatively small business that has not taken investment money, ultimately we therefore need to turn a profit and cannot always offer the industry-leading salaries that start-ups and corporates are able to. Our salaries are in line with industry average and we publish them on the job adverts that we place. In recognition of us not being able to pay industry leading salaries we have also recently introduced an EMI scheme to allow us to distribute share options to the team to further reward and incentivise them to stay, this is alongside our already existing profit share scheme in which each permanent team member receives an equal share of a 5% portion of company profits each year. We value people at FX and work hard to ensure they progress, as a result FX is proven to be an exceptional place to start your career and grow, with previous team members moving on to new roles with the likes of Sky, BT, Virgin, BP, ClearScore, and Deliveroo. Those that stay with FX and continue to deliver an impact are rewarded well through a combination of salary, share options, influence in the business and other great benefits. We acknowledge that we have exceptional people that work here at FX, and we work hard to encourage them to stay with us, if they find their dream job is elsewhere we celebrate in their success with them and welcome them back. As a result it is not surprising that FX alumni often return to visit our team at social events including some that are organised here in the office.
