      Good talent pool, but poor culture and no flexibility

      Compliance officer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Good talent pool and growing organisation

      Cons

      Poor culture, revenue driven, lots of politics and only want to be seen as compliant when interacting with the FCA but there are no real desire to invest in compliance and fully adhering to regulatory requirements. No work life balance flexibility as 5 days in the office.
