Vantaggi
There are a lot of good people here and if you are lucky to get a good line manager then they will shield you from the chaotic internal politics that seem to leave the organisation in a permanent state of dysfunction. In theory, there are a wide range of opportunities due to the wide spectrum of capabilities within the company, but the reality is that you are left on your own and no thought is given to how your skills could help across the wider company. Flexible working is available, but there is very little consideration for home workers so you will find yourself left out of any events or perks which happen at an office (eg food wagons). You will need to make the effort if you want to be involved even if there is no real benefit to being in the office for your role.
Svantaggi
The organisation is struggling to merge the workings of multiple acquisitions and in trying to appease different groups have only succeeded in building resentment and deepening the divide between the different parts of the organisation. As a result there is too much churn at a senior/board level (3 MD's in 2 years for the Digital Practice) and as such, there is no clear strategy for the business. The lack of any form of diversity at board level is embarrassing for a modern company in 2025 and really doesn't reflect the wider workforce... If you are not part of the "main groups" then you are left to your own devices with no support or clear path for personal development so prepare to be forgotten about. (No contact with my line manager for the past 6 months...) Development reviews are rare, pay increases even rarer and even then they are way below inflation and the increasing cost of living. Disparity in levels of salary and benefits across the organisation following acquisition of companies.
