Business Outlook

Pros

Good location near london bridge

Cons

Very bad management leaders, unrealistic targets and expectations from employees which cannot be achieved practically and they put too much of pressure on teams. Very bad negative work culture, no flexible working. Mechanical working pattern. The team that i have worked with was extremely arrogant, blunt and rough. Had an extremely bad experience, would not recommend at all.

A great place to work

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

The opportunity to meet and work with some incredibly intelligent and talented people. A warm and collaborative working environment, where people aren't afraid to be honest with each other. Job dependent, the opportunity to travel to some amazing places. There is no perceived hierarchy; the senior managers are approachable and work closely with their teams.

Cons

It sometimes feels like budgetary restraints are never ending, from managers being unable to hire the candidates they want, to investment in software that would make work easier for a large group, being able to take a team on a nice lunch etc. Some people, managers in particular, might find the constant 'no' response to requests involving financial input frustrating / demotivating.

Business Outlook

Pros

Interesting work, ethical company and great colleagues. Global network, so plenty of opportunities for travel. The type of client projects are getting more complex and interesting.

Cons

As the complexity of projects increases, the internal management of the business gets more complex too. This can hamper competitiveness.
