Pros

Flexible hours, 9 day fortnight, medical insurance, office location, office dogs.

Cons

Where do I begin: - sexual harassment and grooming by senior leaders is tolerated, and covered up in some cases. - senior leaders are openly discriminatory against staff with protected characteristics (disability, race, gender etc) - favouritism and presenteesm - zero company strategy, everyone is walking around like headless chickens - poor and ineffective decision making - no succession planning. Senior leaders are not getting better at their jobs, in fact they deteriorate the higher up you go - no management training. Many people are promoted because they’ve put up with things they shouldn’t, not because they deserve it. Direct reports suffer. - poor communication. To the point where you think everything is a lie because of how ineffectively the most basic information is handled - profit over people, planet and pets. I do not feed my dog this food - culture has taken a nosedive since the appointment of the new CEO. Unsurprising when you meet him. James was great.

Pros

Working for a company offers steady income, benefits, and a built-in team, along with structure and chances to grow your skills and career.

Cons

Working for a company offers steady income, benefits, and a built-in team, along with structure and chances to grow your skills and career. On the flip side, you trade away some control over your time and decisions, deal with office politics and bureaucracy, and face limits on flexibility and earning potential. It’s a balance of security and structure versus autonomy and upside.
