Vantaggi
Pay is satisfactory. The people although sometimes moronic are decent people. Office is pleasant. Your experience will largely be defined by what team/department you work in. I was lucky in that my team leader and manager were very easy to work for and incredibly flexible and understanding with all their team. A shame this ethos isn’t extended to the whole company.
Svantaggi
The work itself is largely dull, monotonous and void of any creativity or free thought. A lot of the management at best devoid of leadership, and at worst cretinous. The irony of certain individuals promoting leadership courses was somewhat lost on them. There is an inability amongst some managers to accept responsibility and to lead by example, and a strong culture of passing the buck. Other reviews allude to an environment which rather than punishes workplace bullying, sexual harassment or misogyny, it prefers to sweep it under the rug. I personally haven’t experienced this but I have heard of the experiences of others - and even if management feels the claims are exaggerated or made by disgruntled employees, I feel that for anyone to leave a place of work feeling like that is something to be investigated, rather than something to be dismissed. With a female CEO, you would think that gender equality would be championed, but as far as I can tell it is lacking and can be vastly improved.
