Pros

Lots of Opportunities to Learn & Grow. Senior management willing to trust and give full ownership to juniors. A+ training and assistance in case required.

Cons

Too strict in terms of adhering to deadlines and hence can create intense pressure environment. This in a way helps to develop skills required to work in a fast paced environment.

Thank you for your comments and it is great to see how senior leadership are empowering people to take more ownership. We advocate entrepreneurial outlooks and approaches so this is encouraging to hear. As a business and to meet our client needs, we often have deadlines that need to be met. However, if you feel that your workload is becoming too much then I would encourage you to have an open conversation with your manager or local HR. Thank you again, Nigel Miller, Chief HR Office
