Pros

Supportive and inclusive workplace, DEI networks allow colleagues to feel themselves at work. Welcoming atmosphere as a new starter The office is a good place to work, nice perks like on-site gym, cafes and free parking (and free charging for EVs) Training and development opportunities such as apprenticeships

Cons

Top-heavy management structure It felt like there were limited opportunities for career progression Some internal systems and processes are frustrating and inefficient Stalled project progress at times due to inability to make a decision and a lack of strategic direction and alignment Work life balance could be improved, at times risk of burnout due to limited project prioritisation and resource management. Some redundancies in last 12 months resulting in feelings of instability
