A toxic workplace

Pros

Some nice colleagues. Good perks.

Cons

High leadership turnover and lack of transparency and direction. A few toxic individuals are running the show, promoting inexperienced employees at the expense of competent ones.

IT - Some good, lots bad

Anonymous employee

Pros

Completely depends on location/team as its so inconsistent across the board. Benefits are pretty good, salary is benchmarked across locations/industries. If you're a "rising star" type of talent, good L&D opportunities. DEI is fantastic and refreshing to see a company not just making noise about but really showcasing their policies.

Cons

Only speaking from my own experience (Global IT), it has got so politically charged where people will do anything to progress in the littlest possible way, no matter who gets in their way. Career progression within the UK is non-existent, at the time of writing there are no senior roles based in the UK and nothing done to make UK colleagues feel included without travelling to Paris where all decisions are made informally. The mandated hybrid policy needs some flexibility for global roles instead of sitting in an office by yourself.
