Pros
Still allows employees to work from home up to 3 times a week
Cons
1. Finance Department Challenges
The finance department is currently facing significant operational inefficiencies, which make it challenging to execute routine tasks effectively and in a timely manner.
2. Technology Implementation Issues
Despite being a technology-driven company, the rollout of new tools often suffers from prolonged teething issues. These implementations are frequently accompanied by persistent errors and delays that can last for several months, impacting productivity and confidence in the systems.
3. Lack of Transparency in Management Decisions
There is a perceived lack of transparency from the UK-based management team. A notable example is the recent change to the bonus scheme, which was introduced during a town hall with NO explanation. The revised scheme shifts the focus from achievable local office targets to global performance metrics, which have not been met in the past two years since the acquisition. This fundamental change has raised concerns about fairness and motivation at the local level.
