Pros
- Generous pensions and benefits - Flexible working - London office is very sociable, with diverse staff at all levels - Opportunity for lots of international travel. Well, at least pre-Covid. Who knows what will happen from now on! - Diversity and inclusion is being taken much more seriously, however, initiatives are mostly driven from the bottom up, by staff volunteers
Cons
- Opaque and subjective performance management process. If you are not a favourite of your manager, you will be overlooked for stretch opportunities and progression. You can meet your objectives, get a positive review supported by peer and customer feedback, and still get rewarded with zero. - The company's age, technical debt and governance structure means that it is not well suited to lead the way in exploring new avenues. It means we tend to react defensively.
