Pros
Some great people in IT, data and finance. They deserve better
Cons
In my first week I was told that nobody in the management team of the department I was joining ever lasted more than a year so I should expect to be moved on within a year. This proved to be the case and I was made redundant within a year along with my peers with some nonsence reasoning about positioning the company for a takeover and needing certain staff in certain positions. I was invited to apply for a higher paid job that they knew I would not want and I turned it down. Months later they still a haven’t filled the position as everyone interviewed has supposedly failed the interview, almost as if the job is unrealistic and/or undesireable. In reality, it’s a job role that really belongs back in the 1990s. They are living in then past with outdated approaches to software development but that doesn’t matter to them. It’s not about delivering good products, it’s about ticking boxes so the potential buyers will buy the company. Lots of politics and just so frustrating to see good people wasted at that company.
