Pros
Flagstone is a fast-moving, forward thinking company where you’re abilities are trusted from day one. If you have a smart idea, people genuinely listen, and more importantly, they’ll back you to make it happen. The culture is dynamic, full of great colleagues who lift each other up, and there’s a strong emphasis on personal growth and development. It’s the kind of environment where you can shape your role, learn quickly, expedite learning of new skills and see the impact of your work.
New senior leadership especially in my function has also enabled growth, removed blockers and really supported personal development in my team and I, empowering us to really to excel on what we deliver but more importantly and grow our skills in line with the business.
There is also flexibility working from home or the option of coming to our centrally located office which has lots of social events on throughout the year.
Cons
As the company continues to scale at pace, processes are still evolving and redundant process are being streamlined or removed, which can sometimes mean a degree of ambiguity while the change gets implemented. That said, if you enjoy building things and reinventing ways of working and shaping rather than inheriting rigid systems, you’ll definitely see this as a positive.
Things can move quickly, but that’s part of the excitement. It’s a place for people who thrive in change, and want to build things, not those who need everything mapped out for them or fear change.
