Pros

The people are great. Good reputation in market. Fantastic client base.

Cons

Silo mentality means that different parts of the business do not all pull together for the common good. US ownership means that decisions are taken that may not be best in UK context. Can take a long time for changes to take place. Technology often not up to speed.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
