Pros
Very friendly and social workplace at lower levels. Good offices. US parent has good mission and vision and supports worthwhile causes/sports sponsorships etc. Was very sold on the potential when I first started, despite warnings from ex-employees and recruiters.
Cons
A toxic culture of bullying and nepotism, where the committed and hard workers are rarely rewarded appropriately. Underperformance is rewarded with manufactured roles if you play the game the right way. Distinct lack of psychological safety. Employees are too scared to call out inappropriate or unethical behaviour as history shows those who speak up or have a differing view to the ELT are very quickly ostracised and magically their roles are made redundant. High turnover. Promise the world to stop you from leaving for a better job elsewhere and then not deliver on those promises. Bullying and harassment are not taken seriously, even sexual harassment can be seen as a joke. They speak to wanting to be a female friendly workplace promoting themselves as such, however, if you ever have a ‘female’ issue and need to take leave (such as pregnancy, pregnancy loss, emergency surgery) or need to cease working ridiculously long hours for short periods, prepare for this to negatively affect your future with the company. I was personally unable to take the necessary leave during or after any of these events, and experienced bullying and after I was open about it. Golden handshakes are not everything - Look after your own health and wellbeing and find an employer who actually values their people.
