Great place to develop your skills
|
|
Minicabit is a long standing start up and is continuously being driven forward by the CEO.
You get to know everyone in the team, so there is a support network to help with tasks and day to day queries.
You are given a degree of autonomy to ensure you're motivated to complete your tasks and develop your role.
There is a culture of asking for innovative ideas from everyone to develop the business further.
|
Communication and instructions should be clear and concise.

Listen to the team and focus on solving a couple of problems at a time - its easy to overload people with too many ideas in one go.

Pretty Good
|
|
- Flexible working environment (remote work is possible and they understand when you might have to leave early or stay home for a package etc )
- Quite a flat hierarchy, everyone can make suggestions and take the lead on projects.
- Some good perks available through WeWork and Perkbox (Beer on tap, free cinema tickets, phone insurance etc)
- Opportunity to gain experience across many different parts of the business and help grow your CV.
|
- Salary not as strong as other tech startups (especially in London)
- Can get frustrating focusing on short term goals rather than improving the service as a whole. Priorities seem to change quite a lot.
- Sometimes expectations seem too high in a tricky industry, especially for such a small team.

Good concept, began as a unique concept and therefore has that as an advantage.

CEO pushes employees too hard with bad direction.
High staff attrition rate.

Bad CEO. Squandered opportunity of an exciting business.
|
|
- Opportunity to learn a lot as it's a small company & you are expected to work on lots of different things
|
- Had lots of potential to be an exciting company, but not ambitious or visionary enough
- Expected to be "on-call" all the time to sociopathic CEO's whims
- CEO tends to hire young employees on low salaries, with low amount of experience, who he can manipulate easily
- Uncompetitive salaries, non-existent benefits, share & bonus schemes a sham
- Providing value to customers not a priority in CEO's eyes versus generating revenue/profit

Poor Leadership from CEO

|
The senior management team are proactive and try there best to solve issues.

Very little autonomy allowed with CEO dictating his own policies.
