Bureaucratic, company policies are ignored, hierarchical management, lack of clear leadership and decision-making.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, perks and discounts, nice London office. If you land in a good team you could do well. Land in one of the many dysfunctional ones and it will be hell.

Cons

Some teams are well managed. Other leaders manage their teams like a fiefdom acting like a cult leader (e.g. if you do not adore me, I will help you. Otherwise, I will make your life hell). Bullying and harassment are condoned depending on the perceived value of the perpetrator to the company. Company policies are not worth the paper they're written on.

Pros

I’ve been working here for over 4 years and can say this is the best company I’ve worked for. There’s work life balance and a lot of perks.

Cons

Moving internally doesn’t always guarantee a pay raise. Or if you move internally they will try to lowball you, even though you are probably the best candidate since you already have some experience using the tools.
