Pros
- Opportunity to work on some big clients - Geese outside the office
Cons
- Relatively low salaries and little appetite to compete with the market - Performance review process that is completely scrapped and reinvented every year - Bought too many businesses without understanding how they work - Culture initiatives are too forced and ineffective, without listening to what people actually care about - Concerns are not listened to, and when they are they're dismissed (at best) - Too much focus on KPIs that are incompatible with the way some teams work - Restrictive work and workplace processes which stifle creativity and individuality - Some teams are valued more than others - No clarity over business changes, or financial performance - London is prioritised, and anyone outside of London feels almost punished - No desire to grow an identity within the industry - Some colleagues left without direct management, due to lack of forward planning - Culture of secrecy creates distrust
