Pros

The outward sustainability focus attracts people who truly care about sustainability and making the world a better place. These people are great to be amongst, and some interesting and impactful sustainability projects happen here as a result.

Cons

The focus on metrics to demonstrate your value to the company and achieve progression is to the detriment of clients and sustainability as a goal. This is coupled with a poor rewards system, resulting in staff being incentivised to focus on progression (chasing pay that they deserve) rather than on delivering sustainability benefits through quality work for clients.

Pros

Interesting projects, flexible work hours, ability to pivot to new disciplines and teams

Cons

Employees are getting squeezed by increasingly difficult metrics, with less compensation, less work won because rates are now set so high. Less and less investment in employees through benefits and upskilling. Managers are spread so thin they can’t give time to their team.
