Exciting re-platforming project
|
|
- Exciting re-platforming project based on a microservices architecture
- Latest Microsoft tech
- Experienced and highly skilled tech leadership, led by former ASOS CTO
- Full CI/CD pipelines
- Small but highly skilled autonomous teams
- All round fantastic experience for the CV
- Friendly people who really care about what they do
- Decent holiday allowances, and various perks thanks to a forward thinking active HR team
- Seem to be embracing work from home as a potential long term option post Covid-19
|
- Lacking a strong profile as a FinTech company, which is unjustified considering the work going on behind the scenes
- Tech sometimes feel disconnected from the rest of the business
- Limited opportunity for progression and lack of salary increases / bonuses compared to "fully software oriented" companies, but the skills being learned using latest tech on the current project currently go some way to making up for that

Operations: Slowing losing it’s way
|
|
There are some great people working for Sonovate across all departments, who always go the extra mile to help and make you feel part of the team.
CEO’s are really approachable and value your opinion. I cannot praise them enough.
Good culture pre covid
Well being is becoming more of a focus, however more can be done with this.
Good benefits package, better than most companies.
|
Due to a restructure within operations, and redundancies being made workload is becoming more turbulent.
New restructure has not been thought about in regards to how this has impacted the current team.
No progression whatsoever, even though one of the reasons for the restructure was to give headway for career progression.
It’s very much who you know, opposed to what you know if you want a foot in the door within Sonovate.
Moral is at an all time low within operations, as new management are still struggling to learn the roles of the employees they have below them.
No structure when it comes to salaries

Operations has unfortunately lost its way...
|
|
Sonovate have some really really great people working for them across all departments who are frequently undervalued and their hard work and efforts unfortunately go unrecognised.
The tech re-platforming is exciting and will hopefully be a key selling factor once up and running
The CEOs are really approachable and genuine
The benefits offered are better than standard and there is the beginnings of a good focus on wellbeing
|
No internal promotion whatsoever, new operations regime recently installed and completely out of touch with how a Fintech business should operate.
Feels like the client services department has descended into chaos, restructuring and redundancies without proper consideration of workloads leaving whole team overworked and overstressed.
Internal and external communication is not very good, no transparency, a lot of company decisions and goings on feel like cloak and dagger situations

It feels like the serious issues within operations are being concealed from C Suite level, check in with your employees and address the problems to try and avoid a mass exodus of staff in this department.

Exciting, interesting and going places
|
|
Great leadership, particularly in Tech. It's an exciting time right now. Cutting-edge technology and highly competent, friendly staff with bags of energy. One big family full of people who know their stuff. A proper tech company which trusts its staff to deliver how they see fit.
|
Growing pains associated with upscaling. Systems that aren't quite right yet. Career opportunities are limited, simply due to the current size of the company. But it's a journey.

Exciting Tech change
|
|
The company has pressed reset on the Tech culture, and strong engineers with company knowledge are supporting the new talent joining the Tech crew.
We are embarking on a structured and well thought-out replatforming, that will completely unlock the potential of the business to pivot rapidly to market demand.
Engineering Autonomy is key, and engineering teams are fully empowered to take ownership on all key elements of getting great software to our customers.
|
There is a rapid pace of change, and as there is expansion and growth this might not be for everyone.
Due to the engineering autonomy granted to teams, some engineers find it tough to also take ownership of their deployment pipeline, testing & operational resilience.

An echo-chamber for senior management
|
|
Some wonderfully talented individuals who are unfortunately slowly leaving the business due to a lack of investment in the right areas of the company.
|
The CEOs surround themselves with people who agree with them rather than people who are experts in their field. Waste of good talent
