Good company with some bad apples

Pros

This company has a lot of positives. For one, the people here are generally great to work with—talented, helpful, and genuinely collaborative. The projects are also very engaging and provide ample learning opportunities across various domains, which is one of the reasons many of us stay despite challenges. The benefits package is competitive and does a lot to show that the company values its employees.

Cons

Unfortunately, there is a serious issue with the management of the PMO. The person in charge has created a toxic environment, acting in a way that feels self-serving and dismissive of team morale. We’ve lost several high-performing team members due to her leadership style, and many have tried to voice their concerns to HR. However, HR and upper management have seemingly turned a blind eye and continue to support her, leaving those who speak up feeling ignored or sidelined. This dynamic has led some excellent employees to resign, which is a significant loss for the company. The lack of accountability at this level is deeply concerning and detracts from the otherwise positive aspects of working here.

Pros

Fairly relaxed environment and ability to make the job what you want (within reason). Okay on salary (so long as you negotiate well) Strong drinking culture (pro and con) Lots of nice, competent, decent people (equally lots of irritating, incompetent people...)

Cons

Inexperienced managers/heads of - tell you what you want to hear with no intention of delivering on promises. Look after only themselves and not afraid to throw you under the bus. Senior Leadership very slow to make strategic decisions Gossip culture - everyone knows things they shouldn’t, such as a colleagues performance review or their salary, or SMT opinions on other managers, or strategic plans still under discussion. Poor on progression / development 40% gender pay gap! No D and I committee or initiatives in place yet - looking to launch a D and I group this year (H2 2020), very behind the trend
