Pros

If you like to be left to your own devices without a manager who is constantly on your case this is the company for you.

Cons

There seems to be little leadership in place, which made it difficult while learning to use company systems (no training was available on this or company practice / process). Very little feedback on projects or initiatives and over a year would pass between employee reviews, which made it difficult to feel valued as a staff member. Once the company obtained city style investment all staff perks and bonuses dried up over night, which further compounded the aforementioned issues. At mid management level staff are still required to be 90% resourced, which leads to people working through evenings and holidays to stay on top of paperwork and remain fully resourced. Other consultancies reduce the resource requirement as personnel are promoted to reflect increased management responsibility.

Pros

On the ground floor there are really good people who are supportive of one another and it does feel like family There is opportunity to grow if you are ambitious and willing put yourself out there - employees often switch groups, relocate or get to work on projects in other parts of the globe Very flexible - many employees are fully remote

Cons

Uneven compensation structure between groups and within groups Inconsistent procedures/ collaboration between global regions Business growing too big too fast; poor acquisition onboarding Senior personnel from legacy companies not willing to adapt and change (I.e. sell to new clients/sectors, adopt new processes/procedures that are more scalable, etc) At times dysfunctional - employees and leadership on different waves lengths, poor communication of vision, competing priorities or goals Too much time spent creating add-on software to automate Finance, HR, Project Management rather than improving preexisting technology
