Vantaggi
The company offers small tangible perks like a monthly £12 lunch and free breakfast for early birds. These are nice gestures for the team, though they don't quite offset the broader cultural challenges.
Svantaggi
Hard to recommend to any senior professional who values meritocracy and inclusivity. The department has a significant issue with favouritism and nepotism, where internal "friendships" take precedence over expertise. Furthermore, the environment is increasingly hostile toward women and "default parents" (those prioritising childcare responsibilities); the recent exodus of the department’s most experienced women is a testament to the toxic pressure and lack of flexibility. If you aren't part of the inner circle, you will likely face high stress, low support, and a lack of strategic direction. The business outlook is concerning following recent market closures and frequent organisational restructures. This has created a highly reactive environment with no clear long term strategy, leading to widespread burnout and high attrition. Due to the reputation of the culture, the department is visibly struggling to attract the senior level talent needed to stabilise the team.
