Where to start? HR is the worst I've seen in my career, rather than having any empathy with new employees they look like zombies hating their jobs and without willingness to live. HR will be rude to you, we had an internal contest on the team trying to get a response each day to the "Good morning" greet. So far, she (there is a lady in HR causing all of this problems) just stays quiet looking at you miserably.
Let's go to the Line Management. On the paper you are assigned to a LM and that's the end of it. You will meet him/her once you join and of course he/she will pop up the day you resign or they let you go. No further interaction, it looks like they don't hire and engage employees just do "window shopping" giving you little to no chance to get into the role before the boot you out.
Most of the staff is either bench siting (BTW lots of cliques inside, some people has been siting on the bench for longer than 6 months without being fired and some of them have been sacked after 2 weeks without a project) or leaving before ending their first month once they see what's around.
We count once above 12 people leaving in less than 40 days, and, good luck with the corporate drinks, perhaps you will end up mothering one of the partners crying out of stress after few pints or trying to propose something else.
Project wise, I guess is as random as it can gets. Nobody knows their roles, there is a lot of overlapping (sometimes both working on the same, sometimes nobody doing it) and of course when it comes to client meetings if it goes well the upper management will never praise you for that but, if it doesn't they will blame you to the extent of humiliating you by kicking you out of the project so there can be new flesh arriving soon that they can blame later. Yes, upper management in this company uses to survive more than succeed, not sure why nobody on the upper senior leadership team has spot the level of mediocrity below them.
Unless you need a paycheck tomorrow, try to avoid this place by all means, the boat is sinking.
