A step back in your career at Leatherhead
Pros
Pay is above competitors Females preferred over males for some positions (positive if you’re female) New company partner so hopefully the bullying/issues from top management down is hopefully going to be properly looked into and not swept under the rug
Cons
Mental health isn’t taken seriously Hierarchy is unfortunately partner profit, then clients, then staff Culture is very poor - people focus on their own work only and there’s no support Workload is partner driven and they overpromise to clients and pressure you to forgo personal events to complete these tasks (rarely completed themselves) Anything outside your immediate role (audit) is disregarded, so don’t go above and beyond unless it’s to find a way to charge clients more The “open door policy” doesn’t work because you get pushed out the firm if you raise any issues. Partners have their favourites and judge too quickly, and it’s very difficult to change this perception
