Pros

nice colleagues family day time off

Cons

1) Bias / unfair treatment Opportunities and recognition are not always allocated fairly. Career progression appear to depend on relationship with leadership, which affects trust and morale. 2) Salary increment / progression Salary progression feels limited. Implementing consistent yearly salary increments would improve retention and long-term motivation, and help ensure compensation keeps pace with inflation and rising living costs 3) Tracking performance While performance tracking is important, the level of weekly activity and revenue reporting being visible to the entire team may create unnecessary pressure. A more balanced approach that maintains accountability while respecting individual performance discussions would be appreciated. 4) Commission scheme Commission structure is not competitive and does not match the effort required; introducing additional bonuses/accelerators would improve motivation and retention.

Pros

Not much to say here, unfortunately.

Cons

In the technology practice, the unwillingness to adapt to a rapidly changing market can no longer be ignored. Too many decisions continue to be justified by the mindset of "this is the way we've always done things," even when those approaches are becoming less effective or counter-productive. While competitors evolve their business models, recruiting strategies, and client engagement practices, continues to be reluctant to challenge long-standing processes and assumptions. The impact of this resistance to change is becoming increasingly visible in the market. Clients and candidates have more options than ever before, and perceptions of the organization are being shaped by experiences that no longer align with current expectations. Without a willingness to listen to feedback and embrace new approaches, there is a real risk of causing lasting damage to the company's reputation, employee retention, and long-term competitiveness.
