Pros

Catered lunch, generous leave allowance. Decent work life balance

Cons

Politics and meetings began to dominate work. Management were slowly becoming out of touch with the core trading business. Shameless tactics used to denigrate employees to encourage them to leave.

Pros

Nice canteen, good location, good benefits

Cons

Toxic culture, very incapable management team, no career growth opportunity, a lot of incapable people who I don’t understand how they get hired, I guess the recruiters don’t know what they’re doing.

Pros

The only reason people stay in the business is for the Profit Share/Bonus payments, but it's surely not worth it.

Cons

Highly political, egoistic environment. The company is full of big talkers and time wasters!!
