Pros

- Most of the people who work here are very nice and it is great to work alongside them. - Central office location. - Free fruit every week. - Free coffee - Flexible to fit around university - The office is new and very nice generally.

Cons

- Your role description doesn't specify that you will be doing lots of other stuff too. - If you are a student, don't expect fair treatment or salary reviews at all. Your base salary will be low too. No paid holiday, sick leave, etc. - It can get very chaotic at times and stressful. - Most of the managers don't know what they are doing. - No career progression unless you are very lucky. - It doesn't matter how long you have been in the company, if the management likes someone more, they will be in favour regardless of your experience. - Toilets are very bad. - The company seems to be focused more on trying to get as much money as possible while neglecting their employees. - You can get redundant just because "we don't need you any more". No feedback. - Lots of people are quitting because other companies pay better and/or offer better package.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review at Sumdog. We appreciate the feedback we get from all current and former employees. We are sorry that you would not recommend Sumdog as an employer. Alongside exit interviews and Glassdoor reviews we are placing more emphasis on the feedback we receive internally from our current staff through pulse surveys. I hope this means we can solve issues quicker and before it impacts our current employees enjoyment at work. Thank you again for taking the time to leave this review.
