Work experience has plateaued. Company is chasing double digit growth
Pros
All the people I have worked with and interacted with internally have genuinely been great. My manager is excellent and tries their hardest to navigate AVEVA bureaucracy. Pay is decent. Working hours flexibility is decent.
Cons
Executive culture has definitely shifted. Anyone that wanted to make the life of employees better has left. Cutting down on WFH benefits with various shallow excuses. Shifting to 3 mandatory in-office days from 1 despite backlash from employees. Dead-set on double digit growth even if it means cutting benefits to employees. Communication is good, but not transparent. A lot of excuses are thrown around for various choices with no concrete data to back it up, and any feedback from employees is promptly ignored. Smaller offices are in various states of disrepair (despite how nice their fancy London office appears). Preferential treatment appears to be given to sales. Benefits have slowly disappeared with no acknowledgement from upper management. One of the core values is sustainability yet offer no incentive for employees to be sustainable. Majority of customers operate in oil and gas sector, and prefer employees to commute to the office rather than work from home. And finally, most disappointing point of all: Most operations are done using Excel, even if Excel is the absolute worst tool to use for that specific use case. Every employee is reduced down to a series of Excel worksheets.
