Pros
- Brilliant people who are experts in their fields - Open discussions, friendly environment - Lots of idea sharing and events going on - Positive experience for graduates who benefit from rotations and early careers training opportunities
Cons
- Outside of graduate schemes, no clear routes for career progression or promotion, which is based on subjective decisions. Lack of detailed and prescriptive roles means you end up doing a lot of out of scope work for no reward or recognition. - Recent cuts mean overburdened, stressed staff and abandoned projects - Increased DEI focus is really positive, but hard to see any tangible action coming from it. - Funding and time for professional development & training is really dependent on your team/manager - Poor work-life balance
