Job Description
About Free-Work UK
Free-Work UK operates as a tech job platform with Edinburgh as an office location alongside Cardiff and Belfast, offering hybrid and remote roles. The company’s Glassdoor page shows an overall rating around 3.8, with particularly strong marks for career opportunities (about 4.7) and more modest ratings for compensation (around 3.8), suggesting opportunity and growth are positives but pay signals are more mixed. Strengths noted by some reviewers include a flexible, work-life-balanced environment and relatively low micromanagement in certain roles, reinforced by Free-Work’s own postings that emphasize flexible and mobile working. Common criticisms point to a small, potentially unstable team dynamic and remarks about elitism or micromanagement from a few former staff, with one review even noting the organization had shut down. Confidence in representativeness is limited by a small sample (about six Glassdoor reviews) and ongoing changes in the company’s recruitment activity, so these insights should be treated as directional rather than definitive.
