Pros
Good office buildings Some genuinely nice colleagues
Cons
Toxic culture of bullying - staff bully, intimidate, ostracise and gaslight colleagues. This is done with impunity due to offender's favouritism with senior board members. Repeated complaints to HR and management generally fall on deaf ears. Frequent sexism - despite all FDM profess to do in the name of diversity and inclusion, CIS white male staff members frequently make sexist and derogatory comments about women. Casual racism and discriminatory speech - expect to hear CIS white male internal staff members voicing extremist right-wing and sectarian views, and mock the behaviours of individuals from minority and LGBTQ+ backgrounds. Results don't matter - those who make the most noise often receive recognition for the work undertaken by others. Nepotism – promotions offered to/positions of power held by family and friends of senior management regardless of these individuals actual experience or professional capability. COVID – senior board and management during the pandemic and lockdown have strongly encouraged the workforce to return to the offices, despite government advice against this. There was even a member of staff of died from complications from COVID 19 yet this was brushed under the carpet and a complete lack of empathy was shown.
