Nice, but growing pains and limited career growth opportunity. - werkgeversreview Software Engineer bij Codeplay Software

Thankyou for your review. We are aware that our compensation levels are not as competitive as they could be. As we develop our products and sign more projects we sincerely hope to remedy this. We offer 30 days holiday per year with a bonus day for each year of service up to a maximum of 5 (Total of 35 days). We have lost some members of staff but a certain amount of turnover is normal and to be expected as people move for personal and family reasons, or to experience other career opportunities. We have developed various communication channels (anonymised and non-anomymised) for all staff to give feedback and suggestions for improvement, if it is felt something is not being handled appropriately and we actively welcome this feedback in the spirit of continuous improvement. We have had 2 pay reviews in the past year, in June 2018 and December 2018. Development Reviews and Job Grade Reviews were put on hold because we were working on an improved review process and structure. This was communicated to all staff and their feedback was encouraged on the draft processes and much feedback was incorporated into the final design. These have now been rolled out and are been actively used. We are committed to monitoring and encouraging the reduction of overtime and promoting a healthy work/life balance. We are aware of the noise levels and will be shortly starting a consultation exercise to determine the pain points and how we can resolve/mitigate them. If staff are ill, we encourage them to self-certificate on sick leave, or work from home if they feel OK but are infectious! We provide the sanitiser to reduce the chance of any cross-infection. Growing a company on all fronts is always a challenge and a journey : the senior management team need to know how people are feeling so we can discuss problems; that is why our internal channels are so important and we encourage all staff to use them. We are in an exciting place commercially but there is still a lot to do ! Karon Davis VP Operations/Director Codeplay Software
