Pros

-I worked with some brilliant people -Worked on Projects and I do have an interest in this. -Salary is not too bad

Cons

-False Culture what is portrayed and the narrative the business use is not even close to how it is. There are so many people leaving at the moment not just for a better opportunity but to be somewhere they can be happy -Communication is poor and there are so many ambigious messages and it is hard to get a clear answer. -They hold back individuals and promote the cheaper, "yes" people options. -The vast majority of the leadership team have poor people management experience, speaking for EMEA here. -I have personally be subjected to bullying and lack of any support and complete disregard for my mental well-being. Yet these people are still employed here.

Pros

Most employees are committed, hardworking and genuinely care about delivering for clients. A business with significant potential - that it currently is not achieving even a quarter of.

Cons

The organization is experiencing the downstream effects of significant transformation, workforce reductions, and the departure of key talent. Leadership capacity is stretched, priorities are not consistently aligned, and communication is reactive rather than coordinated. In several areas, inexperienced leaders have inherited complex portfolios, creating an environment where micromanagement and escalation are replacing trust, delegation, and strategic leadership. The result is an operating environment that feels fragmented, under-resourced, led by knee-jerk decisions and leadership chaos. Too many leaders are focused on protecting or optimizing their own areas rather than aligning around broader business outcomes, making it difficult to maintain consistency, clarity, and momentum across the organization.
