No Transparency From Management

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Colleagues with amazing talent to learn from.

Cons

Management is inconsistent with what they say to employees. There is no security of your job. Overworked like no other company, I've been to. Brokers needs are the only priority.

One of the most professional and best organizations in the world...until now

Cons

Layoffs...convoluted heirarchy system...cliquish...and to top it all off - No Christmas party! Is this is how we keep the morale of hardworking carpenters?

Avoid at all costs! Dead-end, long working hours, 24-7 availability job

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some good people (minority though). I wrote everything in this post and still could not think of another positive thing to say about the company.

Cons

No training, no proegression, long working hours, no appreciation from senior management on the work you do (sometimes no appreciation from clients either), racist and sexist environment, dreadful company culture. If someone is not leaving in your team this quarter, then there will be someone leaving in the team sitting next to you. Constantly understaffed. No team spirit. Salary is not the greatest, and increases are tiny.
