Bullying culture no place for a marketing expert

Pros

Lovely colleagues in the Business Services department, nice offices and good location

Cons

Culture of bullying that comes from Senior Management Team to the head of department. There's no respect for anyone in Marketing, new ideas and suggestions are not welcome. A very JFDI attitude to marketing. Avoid at all costs if you are a marketing professional who values your career progression and your health!

Pros

Looks good on your CV

Cons

Unless you’re white, privately educated and have a double barrel surname, you will be treated like a second class citizen.

Good Company, some great colleagues

Pros

Excellent Brand and overall market presence.

Cons

Regional Partners do very little to contribute towards the firm. One in particular in the South West of London is possibly the worst manager/ motivator of people I have ever come across. Management by fear with very little knowledge of how to effectively run a division or in fact speak to another human with courtesy & manners. has lived off the hard work and excellent results of other people in the division for far too long. Out of this depth is a phrase that springs to mind.
