Pros

- Prestigious brand (still riding on undeserved reputation) - Well paid - Occasionally produces good research

Cons

- Extremely poor leadership, with problems cascading from the top down - Adversarial culture, toxic in the extreme - HR department ("POD") an absolute shambles - Structurally racist - Unclear strategic vision, muddled aims - Outdated and colonial model - Staff wellbeing not a priority - box-ticking exercise

Pros

It was great. Working with mission-driven individuals is always a great motivator. Everyone was pleasant to work with.

Cons

None. Everything that was stated in the JD is what I got and experienced.
