Pros

Some good people Accepting of working from home

Cons

Resource management was incompetent. A failed implementation of agile as a result of poor people management. Frequently would have squads with 1-2 members doing the lion's share of the work whilst others sat around in 'agile' meetings. Poor organisational structure. Complete lack of clarity on how approval processes would work post agile. A refusal to hire more team members in areas that were clearly overwhelmed. Culture was completely destroyed for many teams in the new agile structure. No sense of team anymore, you just get sent out to squads as it happens. Also makes it incredibly difficult to train or develop new team members. A complete lack of regard that agile doesn't work for teams or roles that are not project oriented in the first place. Salary was significantly worse than the market, and gets worse the longer you stay. Any conversation about it would be lost into the ether of the new structure with a lack of any transparency. HR are either very effectively suppressing worker pay and lying about what the market will offer or are blindingly incompetent. The irony is that this has caused significant loss of in house knowledge which the organisation has to backfill with expensive consultants.

Pros

Resolution Life truly lives its values. The company is excellent in diversity and inclusion, invests in employee development, and provides meaningful training opportunities. Leadership encourages autonomy and trusts teams to take ownership. Coming in through an acquisition, I was pleasantly surprised by how genuine the culture felt once I settled in.

Cons

Some critical areas rely heavily on contractors, which can create gaps in continuity and make it harder for full‑time employees to build long‑term ownership. Documentation and tooling practices vary widely, making it challenging for new employees to navigate or understand where they can contribute most effectively. During transitions, there is limited evaluation of incoming employees’ strengths, which can lead to missed opportunities for alignment and retention.
