Total Mess!

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting field to work in. Similar-level staff were wonderful and very helpful.

Cons

Holy staff turnover batman! Management (inc middle management) were beyond abysmal. Bullying, throwing weight around, belittling people who were trying to learn a whole new industry. Outdated systems, like something from the 1970s. I learned that my replacement walked within a month, and her replacement didn't last long either.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS: Toxic work culture and middle management

Executive

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

+ Good pay and benefits. + Excellent travel opportunities. + Plenty of runway for growth.

Cons

- Extremely toxic work culture and office politics. - Middle management thrives on gossip and colourful language in the office. - Micromanagement is freely practised across all levels. - Very high turnover (don't take my word for it, just do your homework on this) for company of this size. - Upper management openly lie to cover up high turnover (medical reasons, family consequences etc.) when employees are clearly unhappy and have left for greener pastures. - Non-existent work/life balance.
