Pros

A workplace which aims to gather high-skilled professionals which under appropriate management can thrive and enjoy great working environment.

Cons

Limited to no investment in personal and professional development especially of more recent hires (note: over 70% of staff have been in the company for over 15-20 years, hence anyone with 3-4 years in the company is still a recent hire). Career progression within the company managed in a bureaucratic manner and offered to staff based on longevity of service and favouritism rather than adequate skills & experience. Hence, the senior management may often lack knowledge and basic understanding of the area they are accountable for (e.g. information security). Salaries behind the market rate with few years.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm sorry to hear that you don't recommend us as place to work - this is something we pride ourselves on to get right. We have invested over £2million in the last year alone on professional development so we are making, and will continue to make, huge investments in our people.

Pros

Hybrid working Flexible but very talented and knowledgeable managers/management Going places Socially aware Great benefits and much much more!

Cons

Like any company growing and going through transition, change sometimes occurs without all the pieces being in place but I would add it’s not very often!
