Freeman reviews

Work isn't always steady, Doing the same work daily may be boring for some people.

A lot of pointless middle management who achieve nothing and bring nothing to the table - yet meddle in virtually all matters outside their remits creating problem after problem for those delivering projects. An expectation that other offices/divisions and/or companies in the group will be treated as 'clients' - as opposed to colleagues. Too many cross-Atlantic politics, particularly with the Canadian office which is ran aggressively in a 'machine gun style, and throwing grenades to the London office. The consequence of this is unharmonious and unconstructive teamwork. Most people in the business are in it for what they can get rather than what is best for the company. The operations director in London is a good example of this; he spends more time appeasing the Dallas office to further his career than running London's office correctly or operationally astutely. Evident failure to properly onboard new acquisitions to the wider group, causing friction between offices and companies in the group as the new CEO's have the belief they are higher in the food chain than they actually are. Ultimately these issues have caused toxic environment to work and deliver projects in - despite the projects themselves being lucrative and on occasion highly profitable.
