A terrible experience

Pros

I cannot think of any pros, it was that bad. The only positive experience I ever had was from the gratitude I got from some of my clients, and their genuine sadness when I told them I was leaving as I had improved their lives. The company itself had nothing positive about it.

Cons

You're told that showing creativity, innovation and initiative will get you places. Not long after I started there, I started working directly with the CEO on a large business bid in Saudi Arabia. I was promised rapid career advancement, a management position and many other things. The bid was successful thanks to my Arabic language skills (no one else in the firm could have done my job) but in the end I was passed over for the job I had been promised. I left not long after, especially as I started receiving racist abuse from other staff members that management did very little to prevent.

Pros

I made some genuine friends due to the awful environment we had to endure repeatedly being put through and threatened with redundancies.

Cons

Ineffectual leadership at national and executive level. Unqualified leadership at national and regional level. Seeing staff as disposable resources. Using 'customers' as a resource for profit against the values of the company. Forcing staff to work against their morals (with vulnerable adults - this is why I left) Dubious recording methods of activity within systems to meet compliance.
