Pros

Probably decent for operations workers and their offices are in less expensive cities.

Cons

CEO laid off 600 people, some who had worked at the company their whole lives, and said anybody cut probably weren't really committed workers. They pay millions of pounds in bonuses, meanwhile. Slashed employee benefits extensively and offer smaller rewards while, again, paying out enormous bonuses to executives. Offer no structure for promotion and rare training opportunities. The most hopeless technological/digital operation I've ever seen. Customers will also know this. Terrible corporate social responsibility. A monopoly that's too big to fail which pollutes the environment while lobbying sympathetic politicians. Built a large PR campaign on mental health provision despite fostering a negative, stingy, bullying culture. Thames Water is a place where ambition dies and inadequacy rules.
