Awful!

Pros

Flexible working (if your manager approves it), pension is good. Bonus is ok. Good office locations. Nice colleagues. Can travel abroad.

Cons

US leaders ignore UK HR laws, micromanagement, total lack of direction, poor project management of IT projects, poor communication (too many words but no clear message), poor market salaries, no clear routes for progression, terrible staff morale, flexible working is applied inconsistently (and frowned upon if you're in the UK and managed by the US), too many cooks spoiling the broth, poor technology and more! Many staff do the work of more than 1 person for no extra money or thanks!

Terrible management!

Pros

Colleagues. Offices and the location.

Cons

Absolutely horrific management style where there's a conveyer belt approach. The individual is not valued and has nothing to contribute with regards to personal skills, qualities and experience. Each member of staff is just a 'bum on a seat', not a person that could actually have something valuable to bring to the table. People are hired at higher level positions because they come across well, not because they actually know the business. Appearance ranks considerably higher than substance. There is next to no opportunity to progress due to micro-management. People aren't allowed to show what they can do. They are never given the opportunity to do so.

Let's just say, I am glad the experience is over.

Pros

Work-life balance and time off policies are good.

Cons

Compensation, management playing favorites, and I'm not sure the company has values anymore.
