Pros
- Your peers at the doing level will probably be sound - Nice office - Employee owned (although you'll have very few shares with the very large majority sitting with leadership)
Cons
Leadership is weak - Leadership don't understand technology and data, and get led astray by Senior Managers with good chat. No apparent appetite to actually challenge - 'Employee ownership' seems to dictate a lot of short-termism from SM and above. Makes you wonder if the company will still be here in 10y time - You'll find yourself having the same conversations over and over again... a lot of talk from people, but not a lot of action. - Very fat organisation... a lot of the work is done by a few people, with a lot of the others just waffling - Quite a lot of nepotism - Always trying to lowball you, doing things back-to-front, doing things on the cheap
