Pros
Some talented colleagues. Fancy office in London. The recruitment team is excellent.
Cons
Senior leadership remains steadfast in perpetuating destructive behaviours and a culture of blaming in Consumer Digital. Directors belittle and demean individuals during meetings. The place is all about hierarchy and authority - land of HIPPO or Stakeholder Centered Design. The workforce is burdened to the point of exhaustion; Yet leadership remained apathetic to the team's well-being - Countless individuals resort to sick leave and quiet quitting due to the poisonous environment - and new joiners and colleagues have to work extremely harder to compensate. Developers find themselves detached from product teams strategically. the absence of any coherent plan makes collaboration impossible. User Researchers are manipulated to validate ideas and are frequently silenced. Design serves merely as superficial ornamentation. While there are a few nice people, the culture is awful. In this environment, institutional racism thrives daily, with women and disabled individuals facing discrimination - the opposite of the ESG marketing speech you see on LinkedIn.
