      Overall good place to work with great leadership - depending on your division work/life balance may vary

      Pros

      Overall my experience of working here has been positive. Being privately owned gives a sense of stability and independence. Leadership has generally always been promoted up from the bottom rather than hired in at the top, increasing the level of trust in senior management who know what they are doing. Everyone wants to do the best job they can and is passionate about what they do. Projects are generally interesting.

      Cons

      The volume of work can sometimes be challenging. I know that depending on what division you work in, work/life balance can be easier or more difficult to manage. I definitely struggled initially but ended up in a good place.

      Pros

      I think it's really the people that make Costello a nice place to work. I love the people on my project teams and in my divisions. They are so friendly and supportive and I have learnt so much from them. Even the senior staff make sure they are really available and I don't feel like any question is too small. I think the flat structure helps with that a lot - they aren't scary managers you want to avoid. They are people you enjoy working with much like the people at the same level as you. I enjoy working on really different projects too. I've been able to work across some different divisions and that has meant I can test out which areas of the business are best for me. I joined Costello straight from uni so didn't know this industry at all or which areas I would enjoy the most. It's almost like a grad scheme but on a permanent basis. Costello aren't a company that just focus on profits. Obviously that is important but there is a bit focus on pro bono work and giving back too. It's really enjoyable to work on these projects and know I am using my skills for good. I would definitely recommend working here as it's a great place to keep learning new things and developing your career from the beginning.

      Cons

      The salaries are slightly lower than other companies but there is a good benefits package around that. Sometimes the hours are a little longer than I would like them to be but that's just the nature of working for clients.
