Used to be great

Pros

Good people to work with, good environment, good flexibility. Get to work on a good variety of projects. Work life balance is encouraged.

Cons

This used to be a great company to work for, but in recent years, management has been changing a lot, and not for the better. No rewards for hard work, the wrong people get rewarded.

Pros

Well intended professional values Good track history Great breadth of people and experience Wide range of projects Depth of knowledge and good access to that knowledge Good appreciation of Client mentality

Cons

Professional values normally overshadowed by financial performance Swamped by unnecessary administration Complete fixation on complex financial analysis Over-emphasis on perceived negative financial performance, little praise for positive performance Completely over-ambitious financial targets and obsession with tracking Ever-changing administrative systems which purport to assist in improving financial performance Complex management systems take overly long to complete, paradoxically at the expense of the very financial performance it was supposedly designed to improve Poor morale, lack of appreciation for basic morale boosting events Extreme tick-box mentality - management feel that systems are perfect and with strict adherence will inevitably lead to success; when this does not occur, management are perplexed and lack ideas to progress

Strange and aloof upper management and bullies rule

Pros

A strong commitment to onsite health and safety and some very good people and interesting projects.

Cons

Don't even think of complaining about abusive, narcissistic bullies because they are a protected species - and you will come off second best Some really good and popular senior managers who hold the place together are being let go for no apparent reason Senior management is aloof and disconnected from the staff A large number of redundancies of very good people at the moment and low morale Very hard to get offered shares, most of which are held by the chosen few anyway Career advancement difficult
