Pros

Amazing boats and locations, fairly cash rich company, fairly decent pay for the industry

Cons

A real management and culture problem. Senior management treat people with contempt and there is very little support and concern for welfare. Staff are run into the ground and treated rudely by senior management who either barely communicate or are dismissive.

Pros

- Travel can be great if you don't have family you like spending time with - After parties are pretty fun - Decent salary and bonus for those who are willing to give up their life for it

Cons

70% of staff are the greatest people you will ever work with! 25% of staff are the laziest people you will ever work with. You will often ask yourself, what on earth does this team member actually do all day? The last 5% are the few bad eggs in senior management who are some of the most toxic and unprofessional people you will ever come across, The toxicity seeps down to their respective teams. People walk on eggshells. You need a lawyer when communicating or you will be put on blast and managed out SailGP tends to hire either senior managers who delegate and outsource everything or they hire cheap, young, inexperienced juniors who lack confidence and charisma The best option is to stick to your lane, distance yourself as much as possible from the toxic senior management
