Control Risks reviews about "diversity"

The office environment is old fashioned and needs a full refurb. Team members seem afraid to speak up on issues in meetings. Managers have old fashion 'micro-managing' attitudes toward project coordinators - Dictating where they sit and constantly checking up on what they are working on. 'Dignity at Work' is not practiced by management and is a great concern. Company inductions took a back seat and forced to focus on job roles, rather than learning more about the company. The role was advertised as project management coordinator, when in fact it's rather an admin role. (setting up projects on the system and invoicing only). High staff turnover. There are some project coordinators who sneak report back to management if you made an error or simply need help (be careful) HR doesn't practice 'GDPR', especially when sending emails containing personal information. WFH has monitored conditions, so not flexible as portrayed. Consultants make a lot of repetitive errors, but you are expected not to make any mistakes when you are new. Poor desk set-up, old pc monitors, and bad seating Training is bad and not consistent among coordinators and no training material to refer back to. Lack of diversity from senior levels upwards, and hard in career progression Limited Company Benefits compared to others.

Work environment is white, male-dominated or ex-military, resulting in an overall lack of opportunity for growth outside of the demographic. Work-life balance is nonexistent and do not expect management to have people skills

- Disorganised induction and training - Micro-management by the direct manager whereas higher management had a hands-off approach - Lack of diversity - Consultants had very poor time management

Diversity and Inclusion plans are a joke; felt like a token employee most of the time as senior leadership would only ever take into account "diverse" members of the team in cases where a progressive front was needed for a project. Did not even received a formal onboarding process; relationship with HR is complicated and most of the time they won't even take your wellbeing into serious consideration. Don't even think about promotions - they are never happening unless you are in an office in Europe/UK/US and look and act a certain way. However, managers will expect you give your 200% all the time - this includes a mediocre pay and working long, long hours without real reward besides the weak promise of a promotion "sometime" in the future.

Focus more on people development and investment

They have the worst managers in the world. Everybody is so pressured to hit their quotas that some are willing to do unethical things to reach them. Partners doing analyst work so they can reach their billable hours. Work is distributed within their own cliques and not thinking about the right person for the job. It is a disservice to their clients! Jerks are usually the ones that are able to grow...especially if you are a white good looking guy! Just go to their website and look at the lack of diversity within their leadership team!

The London Office needs refurbishing to reflect the shift to modern working practices i.e. offices as collaboration spaces.

Top of the company is a closed shop of white middle aged men who have been around for decades. Little diversity of thinking, gender, ethnicity and so on.

Contract type of work, could be moving a lot
