Avantages

Salary Decent pension scheme Not much else to highlight beyond the compensation package

Inconvénients

When I joined, the work was exciting and surrounded by talented and passionate engineers. Unfortunately, over time, many of those strong team members left the company. The culture shifted with new management and tech leads, becoming increasingly toxic. Engineers are treated as replaceable, and non-technical stakeholders often blame the tech team without understanding the underlying problems. Inexperienced leadership sometimes deflects accountability by undermining or scapegoating senior engineers. Career growth is severely limited — there's little support for professional development, and advancement often feels politically driven rather than based on merit. Management seems more focused on internal power dynamics and ego than on building a healthy, high-performing engineering culture. If you care about your mental well-being and long-term career progression, approach with caution.

Avantages

Nothing related to UnderwriteMe, only the parent company whose benefits filtered down.

Inconvénients

Where do I start. Majority of the senior team do not have any idea how to run a product engineering organisation. Constant change in priorities, nothing delivered of any note. Constant change in senior team members with no improvement. Non-existent strategy. Constant surveys but nothing done with them. Management do not listen to employees. Constant in-fighting. Terrible blame culture, each silo protecting their own and blaming the other team. Complete lack of accountability. Data driven and metric driven, unless you are management who impose changes on 'gut feel'.
