Pros

Flexible on the dress code /working hrs. & WFH

Cons

The C-suite level shows clearly they have no vision, experience and direction on where to go. We lost a lot due to them having no vision and they don't want to listen to other's who can see what is going on and can help to minimize their downfall. That triggers down to the D-suite and they don't have a clue on how to fix that problem.

Pros

Great friendly people Good opportunities to get involved in big projects Flexibility to work from home Office Free Lunch

Cons

Pay just isn't up to industry average in some teams, you're expected to take on responsibilities way bigger than your role and get told 'we can't pay more', when if you left they would have to pay someone a higher salary to replace you. Leaves you feeling demotivated. No bonus for years. Gender pay gap is getting bigger each year, it's actually very big compared to average for UK. Lots of managers in positions they are just not qualified for, they have friends in the right places and know how to talk the talk. Underneath this it's just people who are under qualified who don't know what they're doing. People taking credit for other peoples ideas. It's really demotivating that decisions get made by mainly white males, it just doesn't reflect the population internally.
