Pros

An interesting place to work due to the vast amount of technologies - no two days the same.

Cons

Where do I begin.... Dealt with the pandemic appallingly - no remote working support for those struggling and offices closed with little consultation. Terrible communication - you never got any updates from senior management about what was happening in the company. Toxic environment - no trust in management as they would openly discuss personal matters with other members of the team. Poor salary and personal development - No PDPs or 121s to discuss KPIs and subsequently this acted as a convenient barrier against pay reviews. Few employee benefits and incentives. Monthly threat of redundancy due to rapid mergers and acquisitions. This also meant that systems and policies were never integrated properly and so Extreme micromanagement and not so flexible working - They would say it was fine but then pull you up if you were away from Skype for more than a minute. Many of us truly wanted to work hard for the company and for the teams that generally (below management level), were fantastic to work with. Unfortunately it was overshadowed by poor practices.
