Pros

Very little pros, next to none

Cons

An overall toxic, personality-led culture which is being window-dressed for the regulators. Complete lack of support for staff and their development and few routes to advancement unless you demonstrate complete loyalty to the senior management. Management is dictatorial, top-down and only concerned with the bottom line and has a really troubling lack of ethics or values for a business of this kind (as an example the only reaction to negative reviews on a site such as this would be to counter them with numerous artificially positive ones to get the score up rather than addressing the points raised). Turnover is through the roof, which is deliberate - any staff issues or concerns are dealt with by terminating employment.

Pros

Mostly nice people to work with

Cons

Management seriously underpaying junior staff and taking advantage of them. Making them work late and piling on pressure and increased workload whilst not employing enough staff in order to save money and make themselves good in front of the board. Messy processes and tech issues. Management not listening to employee concerns and constant fobbing then off with excuses. Director of operations has made a real mess no wonder people have quit. HR was completely lacking with an outside consultant who used an excuse not to listen to employees by claiming he does not work for Vitesse. Diversity and inclusion is seriously lacking and socials are based around drinking. There was talk of training for this but never materialised. Management desperately need diversity and inclusion training to be more inclusive towards people from diverse backgrounds. Management deliberately try to squeeze out employees that require flexible working around childcare. Management make promises of promotion that do not materialise. No career development, training or appraisals.

Pros

City location, good base salary

Cons

A shocking workplace, with a heavy and toxic drinking culture, no support for training and development for anyone outside of industry, highly inappropriate individual behaviour is protected under the guise of 'preserving company culture'.
