No respect for its true assets - colleagues

Pros

Great colleagues, opportunity to get involved in varied responsibilities

Cons

Annual restructures where 10% of the head office workforce are made redundant (through a process where they are effectively sacked on the spot), to save money. Workload then redistributed to the remaining people with no additional benefits offered for more work. Lack of leadership from directors and some senior managers who get by doing the bare minimum
