Cons
On paper GWI seems like a great place to work, and unfortunately I was suckered into this train of thought. The worst part of the company is the incompetence of the senior leadership team and the CEO. The company has been through several rounds of redundancies and they keep eliminating positions which cause massive brain drain. There is nobody to fulfil the duties of some quite specialist roles. They are hiring people in one round of recruitment and making those same people redundant 6 months later just before they pass probation. They get the work they need out of you then let you go to fulfil a financial quota. The CEO has gone on record stating that he didn't believe AI is a valid reason for people to lose jobs, then in a two faced fashion makes people redundant claiming the business rationale is freeing up funds for AI development. Leadership makes grand promises but never commits, and the regular workers pay the price for incompetency, while they survive with their golden parachutes. GWI could be a great place to work, but they don't have the spine to live up to the lofty ideals they spout.
