Pros

On paper; a good deal. Hybrid working is still the stand out feature and there is investment in having a good public image which means events and feel good stuff

Cons

Low bar leadership and without a clear, compelling strategy. They will ask almost hilariously unrealistic things of you without any conditions for success. Lots of redundancies delivered without feeling and thought at Christmas, no enterprise wide thinking and those with roles that are there to drive change are eaten alive and scapegoated. It’s amazing how huge investments gone wrong are swept under the carpet when the points of failure need real inspection. Leaders who smile and nod and join in the bizarre corporate gaslighting (vs reality) are more praised than those who actually deliver meaningful work. There is a very apparent and unaddressed boys club (and that’s coming from male employee). The reward system is a soul destroying mess and the whole company talks about it. These 5 star reviews I’ve just read are clearly written by HR. I’m astonished to read them as they do not correlate to the company I know and I know that my peers see.

Pros

Great work life balance. The company does spend quite a bit on training and feel good events

Cons

Where to start? Commission statements. You never know what you are getting paid or if it is correct. We wouldn't get commission statements for months at a time. Then you would need to spend hours combing through as the there are thousands of lines of data on the statement. While I was employed there we had a payment agreement on service data. After some time they literally pulled all of us into a meeting and said they would not be paying us for what we had already produced. For me that constitutes theft. They told us many things and never followed through on anything in regards to pay, product, or working conditions. Even after switching positions it was the same nonsense. My team saw a 95% turnover in a 60 day time frame.
