Pros

Good insurance coverage and 25 days paid vacation

Cons

UK-centric, new ownership is moving the company in a completely different direction than what WM was when it earned Investors in People. Employees who still have shares in the company are stuck until the company goes public, but there's a clear sentiment across all departments that the company is changing and not for the better. Very little opportunity for career growth.

Pros

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.

Cons

Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes. Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
