Pros

My experience with this company has been nothing short of a rollercoaster—except it was mostly downhill. The UK office was made redundant just a day before Christmas, which, honestly, wasn’t a huge shock. Still, the reasons behind this decision are... let's say, less than ideal. There were some serious issues with financial management, and a general lack of attention to the company’s rapidly growing financial problems. Meanwhile, consultants were getting daily emails/ calls from debt collectors, and clients seemed to be disappearing as quickly as they were signing contracts. It was like a game of Where's Wally, except Wally was our revenue. Despite the challenges, the London team was the one bright spot. The dedicated and highly skilled professionals worked hard to make the best of a difficult situation.

Cons

By the end of it, this company had cost its employees their professional reputations, their mental wellbeing, and a fair chunk of the bonuses we were owed for the new year. And that’s just the start of it. to make it Christmas themed, It was a bit like being promised a hearty roast dinner, only to be served cold, mouldy leftovers—while the person in charge sits there with a smug grin and their third glass of wine. overall 0 out of 10. hope you had a crap Christmas too !

Pros

This job was one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences. Leadership was disorganized, disconnected, and lacked both competence and integrity. They were consistently unable to provide proper training, support, or guidance, let alone lead by example. During the interview process, the company presented itself as an ideal workplace, boasting strong leadership, impressive clients, financial stability, ambitious growth plans, and a vibrant company culture. Unfortunately, none of it turned out to be true. The work environment was chaotic and unprofessional, characterized by constant turnover and unnecessary workplace drama. There was also a lack of clear direction from the leadership. Based on my experience, I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone. If you value career growth, competent leadership, professionalism, and a stable work environment, I strongly advise that you save yourself the frustration and look literally anywhere else.

Cons

Limited career advancement Required to be on-site five days a week
