Pros

Supportive colleagues at junior and mid-levels who genuinely try to help

Cons

- Workload is consistently excessive, with expectations far beyond reasonable capacity. This leads to burnout and an unsustainable work–life balance. - Increasing sense of being undervalued and undercompensated compared with industry benchmarks and the level of responsibility placed on staff. - There is a growing perception of systemic discrimination, especially among people of colour, who often feel overlooked or treated inconsistently compared with peers. - Patterns of behaviour and decision-making create the perception of systemic discrimination, particularly affecting people of colour, who often feel overlooked, unheard, or treated unfairly in comparison to peers. - Limited accountability for poor management practices, contributing to inconsistent treatment and inequitable opportunities for progression. - Diversity and inclusion initiatives feel performative rather than resulting in tangible improvements to employee experience.
