Pros

Some good rewards e.g flexible working, bonus, pension contribution, holiday, paternity leave etc.

Cons

Low below market and inconsistent salaries across the business, workload and responsibilities is not reflective of pay/grade/job description, bad culture, lack of diversity, lack of transparency, employees rewards decreasing, misogyny from the partnership.

Pros

Strong brand recognition, good training materials, and a professional client-facing image. Colleagues are generally supportive, and there’s exposure to high-net-worth clients which can be valuable for career development.

Cons

High pressure to meet targets, limited flexibility, and compensation structures can feel unbalanced. Processes can be rigid, and progression may depend heavily on networks rather than performance alone.

Thanks for sharing your review of working with SJP. It’s great to read the positives, but we're sorry you have had a mixed experience so far, and to hear about those experiences which don’t align with the culture we strive for. Please reach out via our internal channels to discuss these further. Thanks, Jess
