Pros

Good mix of people, interesting problems, adds a lot to your CV as you are guaranteed to get problems above your normal grade. Anybody who survives a year at Gategroup will come out of it with their career enhanced. I would not advise anyone to stay longer than 18 months. Most people last 3 to 6 months. Office culture is actually fairly positive Free coffee

Cons

Most departments are understaffed by 10-30%. All employees are underpaid by 10-50%. Only way to fix this is get a job offer from elsewhere, and accept it. If you show them a job offer from elsewhere, they'll promise to match it at your next review, then not do so. Everything's someone specific's fault, and its never the fault of HR for hiring incompetent people in too small a volume. Different business units fight each other. If you get caught up in these fights its made personal.

Completely rudderless ship with utterly clueless management

Pros

Really struggling to find any pros, but it insists I find something to write. Most of the staff are brilliant and dedicated, so I guess that's a pro. If the senior management weren't constantly making their lives impossible.

Cons

Dear Lord, where do I start? Appalling levels of leadership from the senior management team, who are protected from ever seeing the fallout of their decisions because they are safely cocooned in Switzerland and never set foot in the UK. Self destructive behaviour that has taken a team that won industry awards year after year and utterly destroyed everything we worked so hard to achieve.

Pros

Some great people A great industry Opportunity to travel

Cons

Poor leadership (MD & some Directors) A dishonest & toxic culture where issues are ignored General disrespect for people Unprofessional culture of being late or not attending meetings Short term focus and a very reactive business Rife with internal politics and bullying to protect the group interest at all costs Management by 'window dressing' rather than facts Internally focused Priority is to win new business at any cost, rather than successfully manage existing business Boys club, with little diversity No investment in people or focus on people Too many priorities, no focus, no direction, no strategy
