Pros

Ambition of the company, modern practices, pace of change

Cons

Cookie cutter approach to applying their strategy to all areas doesn’t sit perfectly with many specialisms, relentless pressure can lead to burn out, a mega scale enriching operation for the inner circle of top management

We'd encourage you to speak to your manager or get in touch with us if you need any support, and if you'd like to speak to us about anything else please feel free to get in touch.
