-bullying culture. Many people left who I knew and all due to bullying from management
-blame culture and no one willing to take responsibility
-a lot of egos and internal politics
-sexist, racist and unnerving environment at times
-Support staff bullied and feel under appreciated
-claims worksite balance but work very late in comparison to the remuneration offered
-no bonus structure so use the lure of promotion to make u work all hours with little recognition or reward
-awful office space in the Manchester office compares to the Birmingham office which is vastly more professional
-high stress levels
-work weekends and logging on at home encouraged
-claim to make a move towards agile working but have issues with people who work from home (but partners can work from home without exception) so not amenable for child care
-unable to work flexible hours to account for childcare issues
-pay rises are a joke
- partners brought in without client following so put pressure on rest of staff to bill to compensate for the weak links
-opening new offices in new locations and expanding too quickly when client following will not create enough work
-dirty offices (heard of rats in one location)
-expenses policy awful expect you to pay for hotels and trains then claim after and takes a week to get back in your account- with low pay this is difficult to manage
-gossipy atmosphere
-systems very behind compared to previous firms I have worked with. Need to invest in better IT and telephony systems
