Pros

Non-management are a great bunch of people, and everyone works hard wanting it to do well.

Cons

I'm truly surprised that Quiqup is still going. I honestly don't know where to begin about the negatives. Quiqup has the most hideous and toxic environment that I've ever worked in. Here are the reasons why: - Management are clueless bullies. The 5 founders are essentially wealthy twenty-something's that have been lucky enough to start a start-up but have virtually no experience, intelligence or care for their staff. Some are more incompetent than others, but they are the main issue about why Quiqup will never be a nice place to work. The CEO has his flavours of the month, of whom he likes, but drops them like a hot potato and couldn't care less about the others. I honestly am surprised the place is still afloat with these guys at the helm. They're lucky to have Quiqup because they wouldn't progress anywhere else. - The product is flawed. A lot of the stress comes from having an essentially obsolete product. They are simply too late to the game and not well-funded enough. Their time is numbered. It's impossible for many people working for the company because they can't hit their KPIs. - Nepotism - many hires are unsuccessful as they hire within their friends and family. This results in a very non-diverse working culture. Also many are as incompetent as the people who hired them. When there's an issue with a hire, management are too nervous to do anything about it as it's one of their cousins. - The location of the office - not a huge deal, but in a dreadful location. - Lack of decision making. Probably due to lack of experience, they will often completely change their mind on anything from a small matter to the whole company strategy
