Pros

The client base is varied which provides a good range of projects to work on.

Cons

Used to be a great place to learn from experienced colleagues, but many have now left. The senior management value profit over knowledge, as evidenced by heavy investment in an offshored Manilla office full of juniors whilst shutting down 3 U.K. offices in a year. Staff are praised for sales rather than technical excellence, possibly because no one in power grasps the nuances of technical delivery. Some very arrogant personalities at the top who are ploughing through their transformation/decimation of the company whilst forcing out those who built the company in the first place. Senior management are not visible to staff - they would rather fly around the world for photo ops than be present for the hard questions from an increasingly disgruntled workforce.

Thank you for sharing your candid review and observations. We value the contributions of all our employees, and we do take your comments on board. For clarity around UK office closures, like many businesses we are constantly reviewing our office strategy, ensuring it aligns employee and client needs; alongside those of the business and external market. Whilst we have closed 3 UK offices in the last year, it is important to note these closures have not resulted in job losses. We continue to listen to your feedback, and many colleagues shared with us that they need a more appropriate space in London to collaborate and work together, as well as to meet clients and new prospects. This May, we're delighted to be opening our new central London office, based on Curzon Street. Your comments regarding senior management are noted, thank you for sharing your view.
