Mixed culture with low morale and direction issues
Pros
People are generally nice, although morale is a little low at the moment because of all the ongoing restructuring. Great place for entry level/freshers to start their career, or for mid-career switches for an easy switch to a not so intensive workload. Despite the lack of other benefits, company insurance has improved over the past few years. Culture can be good but it is very dependent on your team, can be an absolute nightmare otherwise.
Cons
Company seems to have lost its direction for now and is opting to hire as many people from competitors as possible for a ‘fresh perspective’. This has led to many people who have been here for years up to even more than a decade to be terrified to lose their jobs and are spending more time performing for management to protect their jobs than actually focusing on being competent managers or on what they’re actually paid to do. Company functions extremely reactively and the first instinct is usually to assign blame rather than fix the problem, after which the default solution seems to be just to follow what the competitors are doing. Older employees vary to different degrees, with most not willing to adapt to changes like AI or even to just put in more effort in engaging with clients. Others mostly spend their days performing and claiming credit for their team’s work, when functionally they do not really have any jobs that bring in value for the company.
