Pros

Stunning building and facilities, free snacks, bottomless soft drinks, Friday afternoon treats. Prestigious name, stands out on CV, opportunities to travel.

Cons

Relentless micromanaging. Mandatory hours are 08:00 to 18:00 ie ten hours a day and very closely monitored. Not participating in the company pro bono initiatives could cost you your bonus. Very low bonuses. Limited to zero opportunities for career advancement. Dictatorial in that office attendance is monitored very closely, with the threat of disciplinary action for non-compliance. Hybrid working is frowned upon; the until recently 2 days wfh were reduced to 1 overnight with zero notice, despite promises it would carry on indefinitely and will be taken away soon to return to full time in office working. Caste like promotion system.

Pros

In the data department, there are many resources to grow your skills in whichever direction you want (SME, tech, etc.) no matter your previous experience/degree. There are collaboration opportunities across departments like Product and Engineering to expand your network and get exposed to other parts of the business/potential career paths.

Cons

Return-to-office (RTO) flexibility is needlessly strict. It does not matter who you are, how high of a performer you are, if you are not meeting the 3-day in-office requirement… you are urged to leave. Feels like we are sheep and can’t be trusted to do our work unless in the presence of management, no matter the strain RTO puts on personal lives. No matter what works best for us.
