A dream job for the right person - Design Engineer Chain Reaction Cycles Employee Review

-Flexible working: Different departments have different working requirements but working from home and from the office for part of the week has been fantastic for my and I believe others, mental health and in maintaining the work drive and passion for the sport. -Quality of products: Working as part of a range of brands from entry and utilitarian to the best in the world. -World class race team: Being directly involved as a designer in winning world championships to designing a new benchmark for a first serious bike. -Room for creativity: The range of demands in the cycling world requires an even larger range of creative approaches in the hunt for innovation to stay current. To design for WiggleCRC can mean that no two days are the same. -See your dreams made solid: The possibility of seeing your ideas develop and one day possibly see someone else out riding something that was in your head. -The staff discount: Not so much saving money, more the fact that you will be able to ride bikes you wouldn't be able to even consider if you were working elsewhere, or at least not for many years. -The range of products: due to the size of the company there are people working on everything from socks, to jet washers, to ebikes, to show stands and more. Not being pigeon holed has been of great value to myself. -A culture of riders: There is a general culture of riding bikes that is found throughout most of the company, though you do not need to ride bikes or be interested in riding bike to work here, it is something that you should be happy to be surrounded with, and if your normal conversations, news and internet browsing generally revolves around bikes then you will have several people working with you who feel the same. -Work bike rides: as part of mental health, moral etc there is a good practice of after work rides and periodic rides organised as part of your working month. -You could list small variations of pro for some time but they all come down to the main one of getting to work in the bike industry, as part of the relatively small selection of humans worldwide that shape the future of bikes and riders. Oh and there is free coffee :)
