      Supportive colleagues but poor development and management issues

      Anonymous employee

      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Colleagues/ peers kind - Gym onsite - Nursery onsite - Good DEI teams but these are largely staff volunteers

      Cons

      No development Restructuring means key talent leaving. Restructure has resulted in senior management talking like officials in 1982 Bans any political conversation
