Pros

Very flexible working arrangement, management had no idea what was going on and mostly focussed on the London office

Cons

No structure and would have to undo work due to changing KPIs. Future doesn't know it's left hand from it's right and is going down fast

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry you felt management wasn't focussed on your area and that there's no structure. Our industry moves quickly so at times there will be changes to targets and focus but these should always be explained by the leaders of each area as we try to ensure we're transparent with our communications so colleagues have all the information they need. If you'd like to share more feedback with us please feel free to contact us directly.
