• Baffling decisions coming from the top, half of them make no sense
• Struggle to get even the basics sorted for staff
• Happy to chuck money at overpaid leadership while squeezing everyone else
• Internal teams all over the place, no proper direction
• No real investment in training or development
• Everything gets stuck in slow, clunky internal processes
• Diversity and inclusion talked about, but not taken seriously
• Internal comms banging on about stuff no one actually cares about
• Running it like a body shop rather than a proper consultancy
• Strategy feels like it’s made up as they go along
• Internal functions managed on a “that’ll do” basis
• Clients starting to lose confidence
• Can be a pretty toxic environment at times
• Innovative? As if.
