Cons
Career progression is sabotaged from higher management. Not recognised or rewarded for going above and beyond. No time/funds dedicated for development. Disrespected from higher management. The wrong people who lack integrity/competency are in high positions. Ridiculously unrealistic expectations. No accountability. Its who you know or who your doing. Poor communication if any. Relentless workload picking up jobs from unfilled roles with no extra reward. Any suggestions to improve things you are tasked with implementing on top of your workload. Substandard/dated equipment with constant breakdowns. Any opportunity for piss-up takes priority there is never a shortage of chilled alcohol at the directors office. Inadequate break room facilities. No quiet spaces. No team building opportunities. Mediocre structure. High staff turnover at all levels. Constant issues with the environment as the buildings should have been demolished years ago. Not a peaceful work environment there is constant noise from deliveries, contractors, building works etc.
