Pros

Good salary. Some nice regional offices. The usual employee benefits (pension, PMI, discounts etc.), although HQ facilities are somewhat disappointing.

Cons

A toxic environment where nepotism reigns supreme. It is definitely who you know, not what you know. Senior managers and top execs are self-serving - inflicting cost cutting measures on staff (circulating memos banning the ordering of stationery) while living it and fine dining from London to Las Vegas. Worse career move I ever made. Glad to be out of there.

Pros

Great work-life balance as a remote employee. Management is approachable and genuinely willing to help when it comes to workload — you never feel like you're on your own.

Cons

Mentorship is largely self-driven. if you don't seek it out yourself, it won't come to you. Systems and internal processes can be slow and tedious, which adds friction to an already fast-paced workload. Compensation does not reflect the complexity or volume of work expected. High performers who are ready for the next step would benefit from clearer, more proactive promotion paths. When that structure is missing, talented people disengage quietly long before they ever leave.
