Pros

- So much work you have no choice to learn fast - Some nice people - Canteen upstairs was a nice addition -Some interesting clients

Cons

Not sure where to start, I do regret not reading the glass door reviews before joining. I joined very junior and quickly learnt a lot, very demanding clients but I didn't mind that so much. What I did mind was putting in so many extra hours every day just to complete my workload. Yes I did speak to my manager about this but the team is small and the client one of the biggest. After a while I had no manager. As a junior was left to run and report on accounts myself and communicate with the client, with no one QAing my work. But there was no benefit for that, no talk of promotions a year in and no route to getting there. I knew people that had been at exec level for years but manager level work. What's more is you get no benefits, they took away the fruit! Strict rules about being in office, no flexibility in case you needed to WFH. Staff turnover is massive, I saw so many people join and leave. I tried to help train juniors who were left to learning by themselves. Seems they get a lot in to do other peoples work. I was told multiple times we are all overworked and underpaid and I just had to suck it up. SLT are awful they look down on you and do not care when you raise any concerns. I saw people cry in toilets. I was expected to work weekends when we needed. I don't understand people saying the office is nice, it is like an airport super uninviting.

Pros

Young and hardworking people, really smart too, Flexible easy going culture. Salary above the rates of the holdcos.

Cons

Current management’s style passive aggressive, act like they care about your well-being but they don’t and just work you to the bone. Everyone’s head down and burned out in their work. Senior management made of people who aren’t exactly good at their jobs and are there because they know somebody
