Pros

Free lunches & out of date drinks vending machine!

Cons

Toxic culture! Works purely on favouritism! Fully green high sales worker! Made absolute tons of thousands for SB! Shined & stood out with my work rate! 10/10 customer service feedback through the past 5 years until 1-2 hick ups due to unexpected personal situations! Rather than supporting or helping me … they gave me the boot! You are just a number at SB & no matter how hard you work it’s a front to show they care! Everything about this company is fake! Background all this diversity nonsense including mental well being that they rave about lol it’s all a tick box exercise!

Pros

Great work life balance and vacation time....

Cons

Many internal issues and felt like this last round of layoffs was to protect inadequate leaders vs hardworking employees. I understand companies do layoffs but this just felt like Senior management trying to protect themselves because they aren't doing an effective job. I really think there are some issues with the leadership team and it probably needs an overhaul. There was never any strategy from product outside of one small area. The rest of the business was left without any guidance or support. I really think the US/UK shared services model does not work. The UK and US just are entirely different markets and the UK at the end of the day doesn't really care about the US nor move as quickly.
