General disrespect of employees. They’ve had success in trading, though they’re a one trick pony and do not innovate. They arrogantly think this limited success makes them technology visionaries. They have failure upon failure with their business ideas. Everyone in the org knows the ideas are weak but it’s like the emperor’s new clothes and everyone pretends otherwise.

The chaos: from the day I started it felt like everything was half done and not thought through, and that never stopped. If you’re in trading it’s a different world but for everyone else it’s ridiculous, painful, and not worth the little they pay. There are plenty of loyalists to be found within, and some brilliant ones, but most aren’t all skilled enough to be where they are, or they have simply taken over an area to its detriment. Why do I say loyalists? Because this place wants to be a cult. It just doesn’t have any leadership to follow through. You will not be valued or trusted until you’ve sacrificed 5 years of being underpaid. The company obviously places more importance on loyalty than on merit, which is something the CPD would surely applaud.
