Business Outlook

Pros

None, none for 2023 or 2024

Cons

Massive lay offs, poor communication, baffling decisions made by senior people in the USA regarding UK & European teams, offices without any thought for the people it concerns. Stagnant pay. Poor compensation. HR is all outsourced so every request is met with a no, with no reasons given. Little room for career advancement - particulary if you aren't in the USA. Morale at an all time low - and that's saying something. I wouldn't recommend anyone joins this company. Lot's of pale, stale men at the top taking big salaries and achieving very little. Lack of women in senior positions in 2024 is now becoming embarrassing. Lack of leadership, lack of innovation, lack of ideas. You could pick up a strategy textbook from the 1990s and see where leadership is getting their plan from. Good people leaving in their droves, and more to follow.

So much potential but not organized/structured effectively to leverage it.

Business Outlook

Pros

It's pretty stable with a decent work-life balance.

Cons

Innovation and entrepreneurship are not prioritized and, in some cases, punished when the bigger fish in the pond feel that you may come up with a better idea/way forward that could take the limited resources away from their pet projects.
