Pros

Some great really great people! Billing targets not really enforced. Good variety of work.

Cons

Some really bad people (lots of boomer style management). Poor bonus scheme. Below average pay. Company growing large but trying unsuccessfully to cling to being a ‘small family’.

Pros

Got to know some lovely people.

Cons

One Partner in the Manchester chemistry team created a toxic, oppressive working environment, and was unpleasant to be around. Working there had a negative effect on my mental health. Training was inadequate in that team. Subpar salary and benefits.

Pros

Hybrid working. Leeds city centre.

Cons

Extremely hierarchical. Managers do not lead by example. Conflicting training makes it very hard to learn the job. Very stuck in there ways. Unwilling to change/adapt to new practices. Was told how all the problems I brought up were also brought up by the last employee that left, yet they still didn’t do anything to change. Emails will be sent behind your back about your work, rather than addressing the situation professionally. Overall it was an extremely toxic workplace for me which really took its toll on my mental health, my family and friends was pleading with me to leave and now that I have I’m so happy again.
