Vantaggi
• Lots of autonomy to approach your tasks • In my case, one of the best team leads I am ever likely to have • Flexible, hybrid working • Responsibility is given to you from day one and the expectation is to run with this • Great young teams - honestly, some of the most ambitious, hard-working people I have ever worked with • Data warehouse is excellent • Your suggestions are listened to but must be justified with data or further reasoning • Global company with exposure to different people, cultures and backgrounds which is really fun! • Gym benefit is sweet but not for everyone • Get to travel across the UK • Summer & Winter Regional Parties (i.e. UK meet up in London twice a year)
Svantaggi
• Inter-company communication is incredibly poor; you are first told of key operational changes that impact your role weeks after they have come into effect • Despite being given a Project Manager title, you are more of an Event Manager • Extremely low salaries which you end up stuck-on (the promise of a pay-review does not mean you will receive an increase) • Unattainable targets meaning you will not receive your bonus unless you are happy to work unhealthy hours • Immense workload that is near-impossible to juggle and if you hit your goals you will be rewarded with even more work • All major and minor decisions go through a sole person for one of the biggest arms of the entire company meaning major delays to actually do your job • Almost all decisions are made based on data - meaning that local/regional attitudes are regularly ignored • Out-of-touch with event operations - questionable health & safety processes which have and will continue to hurt the company for as long as it runs its own events • Wide discontent across teams due to significant company growth but lack of reward - you will offer far more than you will ever get in return • Lack of development opportunities or clear progression routes
