Pros

Used to have a great team and culture and invest in training etc.

Cons

Everything cut, no team building and not a great work place culture anymore, very apparent the execs are in it for themselves and not for the development of their staff or well-being (especially after the increase of wage given to CEO’s and bonus cuts from the rest of the company and stops on pay rises. Selfish.) Also, it was astounding how cuts were made but random large sums of money would be ‘miracoulsly’ found once a sales team memember needed more money. A lot of money wasted in certain areas which could have funded something more beneficial to the employees development. Pay gap between genders also a huge problem here and flexible working not offered to the hard working mums who have to do it all - some brilliant female employees lost due to the company’s insensitive nature towards their staff.
