Pros

- Good remuneration package - Based in Nottingham which is a nice place to live

Cons

- No work life balance - Strategic aims focussed around cost cutting and quarterly results rather than long term health of the company - Finance team competitive with each other and no feeling of collaboration - Long hour culture - Impossible to make an impact on a personal level as the company is dominated by a number of senior heads very protective of their domains

Pros

Decent salary & benefits, monthly no internal meeting days

Cons

Friendly reminder that HR does not care about you. They care about staff with seniority, whom they will allow to retaliate despite that being against company policies. Think twice about reporting the higher ups because it will come back to haunt you, guaranteed. Also, AI is the only thing that matters anymore. Watching the volume of once-impressive colleagues become so single and simple minded through constant AI usage is not only disappointing but genuinely alarming. Thinking for oneself is no longer the standard, it seems, and speaking against such unfettered use of AI in all things will get you professionally ostracized.
