Pros

Strong global brand, good benefits, talented colleagues, exposure to senior stakeholders, and a good place to build stakeholder management skills in a complex enterprise environment. The office location and facilities are also strong.

Cons

Heavy governance, unclear priorities, frequent reorganisations, and visible internal politics. In some global functions, opportunities and visibility can feel too dependent on location and informal networks rather than delivery impact. Performance and promotion processes are not always transparent. Work-life balance can suffer because there are frequent urgent issues to solve, without much recognition or compensation for the extra pressure.

Pros

I used to love working here. I love the people I work with. The level of clients we get to work with is great. National, International brands.

Cons

Frequent reorganizations, salaries are not even keeping up with inflation (which is not a "merit" increase, additional responsibilities for no additional compensation, frequent layoffs and offshoring. When layoffs occur, there are always several positions / responsibilities that are not backfilled and no longer owned by anyone. Changing work from home / hybrid / full time back in office policies continue to change. Employees no longer trust the leadership. There is no stability. There is no incentive to do great work. It has not been valued.
