Pros

Work from home so I don’t need to see the characters I deal with face to face.

Cons

Incredibly racist environment. Pretends to care about diversity but actually promotes racial inequality. Promotions given to staff who abide by rules even if they are not technically gifted. Backstabbing culture is dominant, be prepared to be mistreated and mishandled and bullied if you’re not white. Nobody cares about you which is why so many people are leaving once qualified. Partners will bully you and make you feel out of place.

Pros

Option to work from home two days a week.

Cons

Below-market compensation. Limited opportunities for career progression and development. Insufficient onboarding and training and development for new employees. Employees are often expected to work independently without adequate support or guidance. Workplace culture can feel cliquish and exclusionary at times. Low levels of employee engagement and motivation. Significant reliance on outsourced work, which can impact team cohesion and development opportunities. Management quality is inconsistent, with limited support from some managers. Frequent travel requirements that do not always appear necessary for the role. Workplace culture can feel overly focused on pleasing management rather than encouraging open and constructive feedback. Employees may feel pressure to participate in social activities or maintain a particular image to avoid feeling isolated. Unprofessional behaviour, including workplace gossip and negative discussions about colleagues. Lack of transparency around organisational decisions, including redundancies. Unfriendly environment.
