Why Product Madness
?
Product Madness is so much more than just a Pool table and a foosball game.

We believe in an honest and transparent approach with our teammates.

Company wide weekly Town Halls, All Hands and strategy meetings are just a few ways in which we encourage an open and honest path to achieving complete transparency.

Despite a pandemic, there isn't a day where we don't feel connected to one another.


With frequent events, workshops, giveaways, slack coffee and donut sessions we have definitely brought on our office culture to this new virtual world of zoom calls.


We also try to cater for all our staff's needs - be that a freshly brewed cappuccino made by our professional barista in our free coffee shop or by providing a bountiful supply of tasty snacks to keep us refueled and buzzing.


We love to organise plenty of social get-togethers and action-packed activity days, be it slipping inside an inflatable bumper ball for a mad session of football zorbing or throwing caution to the wind and traversing giddy treetop rope courses at Go Ape.

On top of these team-building activities, our lunch and learn workshops, not to mention the lavish Christmas and summer parties, foster that 'work hard, play hard' mantra.

Our offices are based in the heart of the metropolises of London and Lviv, surrounded by an abundance of diversity and inspiration to keep those ideas flowing.


Our Values
-
People First
We have the deepest respect for our people and their well being. We know they are exceptionally talented and will always have a choice. We want them to re-choose us every day. We are committed to building a culture where each person's voi
