Pros

Central london office wise mission days for networking office food

Cons

-Too much gaslighting by finance leads. Opinions in advisory work are not respected -no clear deadlines and broken processes causing too much confusion. even with this lack of structure, employees are often blamed for work not done. - Finance leadership is not too technically strong and hire consultants for everything even when employees have expertise - There is a lot of hegemony from Estonian office on others. British office culture is much better - internal employee surveys are a facade - lack of professionalism and basic office manners. no cohesiveness in offices - experienced or old employees in company have lack of respect or care for new employees . they dont want to get challenged and continue with their clout or broken structure - lack of right work for right grade. work is not matched to experiences or expertise

Pros

Base pay Decent office EAP

Cons

Toxic leadership. Poor work culture. Lack of trust in people. Too much hierarchy/ overly top down not only in organisation terms but very evident in the day to day. Hire the best only to waste them as the top leaders don’t have a vision and are simply trying to keep up with trends. Needless to say no room for growth
