Lead NodeJS Engineer, With Intelligence

From the moment I arrived, everyone in my team has been supportive of the fact that I had plenty to learn as an industry outsider and have all worked tirelessly to bring me up to speed in the most positive way possible.

When faced with some challenges outside of the office, those above me couldn't have been more helpful, kind and understanding. They sincerely cared about how I felt and were patient with me in the process of getting better. Regular one on ones also help make me feel like my opinions are listened to/valued.

Any time I have submitted a story to my editor that has been to a high standard, I have always been congratulated/praised for doing so, which has worked wonders in making me feel like I know what I am doing and am here for a reason.

As a newcomer to the FinTech industry, With Intelligence has been a great introduction to this exciting and growing space. I've learnt a whole new skillset and have already experienced growth and opportunity within the company when I was promoted after 9 months.

The people who work at With are what really make it. Supportive, hard-working and fun, workplace culture can really make or break a job and in my case it has made it a favourite aspect of working for the company. It has been great to build solid working relationships and witness the majority of them turn into incredible friendships.

With Intelligence is a leader in terms of our industry events. It's nice to be able to fully believe in what I'm selling as this comes across to prospects - you can't fake sincerity!

It’s rare to find a company that actively involves its employees in key discussions, yet at With Intelligence, my thoughts are genuinely heard and considered. I’m invited to participate in important meetings, and my contributions are welcomed. This inclusive approach makes me feel like a valued part of the company’s mission and strategy, boosting my confidence and encouraging me to think creatively. Working with a team of intelligent and hardworking individuals, I feel respected and engaged, knowing that my ideas can have a real impact.

With Intelligence truly understands the importance of work-life balance and personal well-being. There are monthly events that help build a sense of community, and well-being days off allow us to recharge when needed. I appreciate the additional gestures, such as the free breakfasts, which bring us together and create an atmosphere of support and positivity. The company’s commitment to well-being is not just about perks; it’s reflected in the supportive work culture where everyone helps each other achieve monthly goals. This focus on employee health and happiness makes a noticeable difference in morale and motivation, and I feel fortunate to be part of a workplace that prioritizes these values.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my role at With Intelligence is the consistent focus on learning and growth. My manager is not only technically skilled but also highly dedicated to mentoring, providing me with valuable insights and helping me develop technical skills I hadn’t previously mastered. Regular team meetings and brainstorming sessions allow us to delve into technical and business topics, broadening our understanding in a collaborative setting. Additionally, initiatives like monthly lunch-and-learn sessions provide even more avenues to deepen our knowledge. Each day presents a new learning opportunity, whether from the projects I work on or the expertise my colleagues bring to the table.
