Pros

The company offers excellent benefits, including generous support for early-career professionals through third-party programs such as chartership sponsorships and professional training opportunities.

Cons

Internal management was awful. There is minimal mentorship or guidance, and junior employees’ perspectives are often overlooked. In some cases, contributions from less-experienced staff are not acknowledged, with credit instead going to more senior team members (even though the solution proposed is the exact same).

Pros

OK if you’re a favourite.

Cons

Led by arrogant HR dept - the tail that wags the dog. WFH outlawed unless you’re one of the chosen few. Trying desperately hard to be woke. Senior management a clown show.

Terrible management, people are often treated as objects and moved around as management pleases without any consideration of circumstances You only get to progress with your career if you don’t give anyone else the opportunity to speak Management is quite rude and unapproachable, often making employees feel bullied and unappreciated
