Pros

The company has great products

Cons

Terrible management - unsupportive and have little to no management skills. They are also very unprofessional with team members. There seems to be very little progression. Communication is terrible within groups, between groups and between the US and everyone else

Priorities are wrong. The best employees leave.

Business Outlook

Pros

Individual staff are diverse, kind and there to do a good job. UK office space is nice. Jobs are secure.

Cons

Disconnect in priorities between US and international offices. Disconnect and competition between business units that should be working together. Top-down priorities are off, and focus on targets and not the customer. Upper management is out of touch, and doesn't seem to understand what they ask for. The pressure feeds toxic behaviours and a stressful, unproductive atmosphere in the commercial teams. Significant pay disparity for similar or same job roles.
