Pros

Moorgate office with free snacks. Good for social life if you are young (in your 20s) like most people working in Data Fancy summer party International and diverse staff They are willing to sponsor work visas for many non-EU employees

Cons

Misleading job advert, data entry job dressed up as being an Analyst job - some teams are better than others but many people do copy paste. Must spend minimum 18 months in data before can move internally to sales etc. Data is in smaller separate building so you have no interaction with people from the rest of the organisation although this will change when move to new office currently under construction. Near complete lack of exposure to intelligent people to learn from, as to be expected from data entry role... Smarter people with industry experience work in other teams in completely different building. Strange infantile environment, like being back at school. You will be treated like a child. Cult-like. Micromanagement.

Pros

Good pay, amazing benefits, free food

Cons

No training, no documentation for the tools, ridiculous micromanagement by low-level managers who have no idea how to manage, don't ever be a whistle-blower on bad behavior, or you will be put on the road to disciplinary action, constant backstabbing by coworkers. Basically like working in a junior high school. Mostly 20 year olds who don't know that the culture is completely toxic. Ridiculous arbitrary metrics that have no validity for measurement of performance.

Pros

Great company and people. Good as first job for about 2-3 years. Very friendly environment. Reasonable benefits package.

Cons

Inter company transfers are very difficult and there is limited transparency on how one can qualify for roles. Not enough opportunities to go around. Methodology for individual compensation not transparent. Role becomes cumbersome when all you have to do is collect data for years.
