      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's a good company for people who are lazy and love BS.

      Cons

      The U.S. have opened their eyes and realized that the London office was swamped with radical lefties. There was no other path other than to shut these muppets down

      Corporate Buck Breaking - Zero Support From Senior Management

      Director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Genuinely coachable rank and file teams; compensation and benefits were ok assuming certain factors such as appropriate scope, responsibilities and risk.

      Cons

      *Horrible "legacy" bias mindset in leadership. *Provincial thinking, derision and disdain for out of the box thinking. *Lack of situational awareness was pervasive; political commentary by management displayed ignorance of diverse viewpoints, sentiments. *Compensation was not commensurate with my responsibility. *Management asleep at the switch in multiple departments responsible for risk mitigation.
