Pros

The company has quite good culture and teams, great development for early professionals, It is fairly hierarchical as you would expect from company of this size but most senior leaders are easy to approach.

Cons

Career progression criteria not super clear so sometimes it can be slow to progress

We appreciate your comment about the slower start. Beginning a new role can sometimes take time as we ensure proper onboarding and training, but we’re always looking for ways to make this process smoother.
