A Flourishing Workplace for Remote Professionals, Unparalleled Support, and Continuous Skill Advancement - Technical Engineer IAM Cloud Employee Review

A great team of super smart and friendly people. Working on some really exciting projects with almost unimaginable potential. Solid pay. Remote working.

Today, there are hardly any cons. But IAM Cloud has come a very long way from its humble and occasionally difficult roots of building a software company from scratch with no investment. I've seen an amazing amount of change over the 7 years (at the point of writing) I've worked for the business. One genuine challenge facing the company today is trying to bring greater diversity (a big problem in tech in general), but it's something the business is actively trying to change, and it's getting better with time.

Autonomy - there's a lot of freedom in terms of how to deliver solutions. Just because something was done a certain way in the past, doesn't dictate that things should continue in that fashion. Flexibility - aside from a few meetings during core hours, there is the ability to shuffle around your working hours to suit your needs. You are evaluated on your output, rather than whether or not you're sat at your desk 9-5 every day. Remote working - you are provided with the tools needed to work remotely effectively. The company has been pro remote working before the pandemic, and doesn't feel like an after thought. Trust - as a team of skilled, passionate people, you're left to manage your time as you see fit. Tooling - choice of laptop and OS, productivity tooling and courses are easy to acquire through the company provided there's a tangible benefit in terms of knowledge or efficiency. Leadership - all of the directors are down to earth and approachable. They work hands on along side the rest of the employees and don't feel like distant authority figures pulling the strings from afar.

There's still some refinement needed to working patterns and practices as the company grows and the teams mature. However, any good ideas are listened to and implemented, and as things are found to work or not work, things are tweaked and continually improved. There is what some might call a "start-up mentality" - which is a positive in most ways, but may be a little intimidating if you're used to working in a rigid, enterprise-style company where you're drip fed a list of user stories to get on with.
