Pros

Not too many. Leadership team is so incompetent and on their high horse that they don't notice 90% of the organisation underperforming.

Cons

Cost savings drives organisational direction at the cost of strategy. Previous regime was a closely guarded group mostly from a previous organisation, new regime is more of the same, just from a different organisation this time. Employees are treated like numbers and are expendable. As always, they preach about caring about their people, yet there are many many instances of bullying, discrimination, unfair treatment. Previous HR director had zero HR experience or credentials - wonder why this is an issue... No safety for employees, grievances are ignored. Mass layoffs, over and over, without due process or consultation. You will just disappear one day and people will only find out when your email bounces back. Transformation direction is one of the most ineffective ever seen. Zero progress, just pure waste - transformation is done with no professionalism. Avoid avoid avoid.

Pros

Flexible work environment, benefits, paid time off.

Cons

A lot of work. Work life balance can be difficult. Client expectations are sometimes unreasonable and leadership doesn’t set boundaries to protect teams.
