Vantaggi
Conceptually the solutions are brilliant. CEO is a real talisman and fantastic public face to the business.
Svantaggi
IMO, It feels like management are playing out the tried and tested ‘go IPO’ playbooks rather than inventing their own storyline. One of the solutions is half baked when it comes to handling complexity and data integration. Usual pre IPO sales micromanagement & obsession with hiring from competitors. I really objected to being told to submit a Glassdoor review as part of my induction...how can that be anything other than gaming the system (hence second review here). Internal systems are useless; Pensions & expenses are botched endlessly. The expenses system is reconfigured, seemingly on a weekly basis, without being communicated to staff.
