Pros

Some nice people The role allows you to go to places you wouldn't be able to travel to if not working on a project.

Cons

Very low compensation for all employees under a Senior position. Majority of employees in the North of the UK would come in at over £10k under the national average salary. However not illegal, it's showing of the company. Quarterly meetings to show you how many millions you would be making the company, all for it to go to Senior Management and not the backbone of the employees. The 'winding down' of the company was a farce. People would act as thought they knew nothing about the plans, even though there had been several months of meetings. More so senior managers went on to make their own business within a month of the closure. Showing it was on the books for a long while. That is no way to treat people which gave you their everything. Never had any decent pay reviews - just the typical 'Pizza Party' which itself is laughed at globally as a ploy to not pay employees more.

Senior management pushed less senior people to do a lot of work, late nights on business development that was nit compensated even if the project was won, A lot of focus on revenue on the employees account

Thank you for your review. Employees’ expectations of employers continually evolve, so we seek regular feedback from our teams through a variety of channels. Employees value meaningful and challenging work, flexibility and balance in their lives, transparency from leadership, and opportunities for career growth. This helps us evolve what we offer. We also encourage employees to take part in quarterly impact conversations, a two-way discussion where they can discuss real-time challenges and opportunities with their manager. --- LL
