Pros

People at a more junior level are very friendly Opportunities to travel

Cons

Senior management are incredibly micro-managing and pass on any stress down the chain instead of taking responsibility for decisions Everything is very much based on who rates you, it creates quite a gossipy culture There is a big blame culture and huge amounts of pressure are put on more junior staff No real exciting long term vision Failure to promote people or reward them properly Paris HQ feels very distant

Pros

Benefits are good and bonus payments tend to be pretty good

Cons

Understaffed and overworked. Nobody cares how much work is put on you and how much of an affect it's having on you. You are expected to put up and shut up or leave! Company makes out they care about employee wellbeing but it couldn't be further from the truth! The most TOXIC place I've ever worked. The more senior the employee, the more they are just out for themselves. The place works in utter chaos and they do not care about their staff at all. You become surplus to requirements, they will toss you aside like you mean nothing! Avoid at all costs!

Pros

Culture is positive with great staff and collaborative working. Company is supportive and there is lots of opportunity to up-skill and develop. Feedback is actively listened to and worked on.

Cons

Multiple Business Units with separate strategies, projects and work streams creating unmanageable level of demand on resources. Always seem to be chasing the 'shiny new' without dealing with root problems.
