Pros
- Good pay, WFH(Although now changed to 3 days a week) - Really nice gentle people work there(Feels like a 6th form college) - Genuinely mixed demographic - Decent office environment - People and management do try to do their best but the environment is a mess
Cons
- Weak and over promoted management - George Osborne's wife used to be the CFO - Management not trained to deal with toxic employees - Death by shared document - Overrun by MBAs leading major projects without project management background = failure - Preach racial and religious equanimity but ignore massive class bias - Senior management won't even send you Christmas wishes - Management by escalation mindset - Too much responsibility given to junior staff members with zero business or real life experience - HR constantly being dropped in it by clumsy management (They have my sympathy) - Degree of nepotism, former colleagues being brought in quite often - Constant obsession food makes you feel sick after a while(It's just food guys) - Sycophantic culture especially around Will Shu - Lack of personality across the organisation, uninspiring management - Way too high turnover, way too high mental health absences
