Not what is used to be!

Pros

Good, cool brands, great head office with bar on site. 3-5 years earlier and this review would be far more positive as the business has really changes its principals and values.

Cons

Too many gaps in the business, no real training plans and no emphasis on getting industry standard training. The review scheme is unfair and manipulated by management to meet averages. Too much based on who you know and not what you know. Wages are low and unless you join into middle management the HR teams will ensure you are not paid industry standards. No support from any HR teams in the GB business at all.

Pros

Great brands, some very good people, bar on site, flexible working arrangements, gym, good compensation schemes

Cons

London HQ in the middle of nowhere, lots of talk but no action to back it up, rotating senior teams with no clue what they should be doing in their jobs sometimes, invisible management with little leadership despite talking about it all the time, very little appetite for improvement, massive waste of funds and inefficiency, frequent reorganisations, career adavncemnt supposedly based on appraisal process but in relaity based on networking only, appraisal process extensive but vague and ultimately not adding any value
