Pros

Companies strategy to make a difference to 200 million peoples lives, feels like you are making a difference

Cons

Like many large companies you have to build a strong network to get things done, and its overly complex. Despite a Great Place to Work being a priority for several years, still see bullying behaviours, poor managers, preference for external hires, and a fear of speaking out.

Pros

travel discount; job security; big company

Cons

small politics dominate. Science doesn't speak. company values are just talks. people are still in different offices after years. Too many inexperienced people in high-level roles but lots of talented and hardworking people are in low positions. To "reward" employees who haven't left the company early enough, they cut the company's pension contribution meanwhile telling people "return to growth ".
