Pros
Aligned to the Tech sector they pay really well for the work we do. Benefits are great (1 yr Maternity) and the office is really laid back with free drinks and beers once a month
Cons
In Finance the director+ level is really poor. Younger staff will not learn anything from their mangers and are essentially left to themselves learning on their own or if lucky with other inexperienced/junior staff. As a result business processes do not improve and deteriorate over time. The directors I have seen are best described as "followers" not "leaders". Many managers are unable/unwilling to make decisions regarding issues, projects or processes. They tend to wait for others to make decisions for them and rarely offer an opinion. Really not a good place for a junior person to start and learn something. Most people leave for the same reasons: jobs tend to be very dull (copy/paste, pivot, publish, repeat), poor career prospect and poor middle management team. Good people don't stay. There are better finance teams out there.
