DON'T DO IT

Pros

The work is interesting and challenging, especially at first

Cons

There is no managerial support, the pay is comparatively terrible, the supervisors are awful, the work culture is bad and the diversity and inclusion is also terrible. They say that a junior staff turnover of over 50% across a few months in one office is because they aren't a culture fit - so your culture is that if you aren't white, middle class and awful you won't fit in and won't advance. Just don't do it. Other past colleagues and I have literally had to go to therapy because of how we have been treated. The management have affairs and the whole office know about it, behaviour is inappropriate, the CEO expects hero worship and benefits are consistently taken away. On top of all that, you still work long hours. They also just laid off some of their best people and kept incompetent ones

Hell. Highly toxic working conditions.

Pros

A paycheck at the expense of sanity. What else?

Cons

Absolute hell. You will be overworked and underpaid . Tangible outputs and hitting annual KPAs? Your efforts will be downplayed and all credit conveniently wiped from your track record. Racist white people hold the power in leadership and keep you enslaved with gaslighting and manipulation. You will likely need counselling after working here. HR look the other way label it "the pegasys way" when confronted with solid evidence. Ridiculous churn of new employees. They outsource their hiring for good reason... then deal with you internally with poor treatment and before discarding.

This place is terrible

Pros

The work is interesting and sustainability linked

Cons

Long hours, bad management, no work life balance, use the “Pegasus Way” as an excuse to exclude people who are not homogenous. Racist, non inclusive, high junior staff turnover, senior staff having affairs with each other and exposing their issues to fellow staff members, certain managers are narcissists. Pretoria office a poor cousin to Cape Town office. They say it’s the industry - they are categorically wrong. Senior staff take junior staff work and pretend they had something to do with creating it and present it at conferences, some of the senior staff have out of date qualifications and cannot mentor or train junior staff. It’s basically a teenage company with an attitude problem. No policies, no support. Pay is pathetic - I levelled down in order to escape quickly and was being paid double.
