Pros

Some very dedicated people in the country offices and field offices some great and knowledgeable individuals. Some interesting project work.

Cons

And some truly awful people. Many cases of bullying, poor practice, double standards, rude and arrogant individuals especially in the senior leadership team and the UK P&C team is horrendous. Not a people focused organisation, not interested in staff wellbeing or development they did have a leadership development course but senior management pulled it before it even took off. Ridiculous Reward training. Good Safegurding training but everything online and your never given time to do it anyway so no development opportunity. They keep reorganising making people redundant but still actively recruiting. If your face fits your ok. Avoid at all costs there are much nicer orgs in this sector to work for.
