Control Risks reviews about "manager"

Nothing in particular, maybe a higher salary for entry-level researchers

1. From day 1 I was lied to by my own team because they knew if they told me I would have left. 2. Management is the most unorganised I've come across in all my work experience. 3. The team and company are very segregated in terms of sticking to their teams; very difficult to feel included unless you're a middle-aged white person. 4. Tonnes of bias and double standards when it came to designating workload among the team 5. Unrealistic expectations when you're new. 6. Speaks a lot about diversity but that isn't the reality. 7. HR don't help/push blame. 8. When I left, only 1 new person reached out to me - NO ONE else in the entire team did. I don't know why I'm even surprised at this. 9. Even the collection of my equipment was badly handled - my home address was shared with people who didn't need it so there is clearly no regard or confidentiality for people's personal information. 10. Micro-managed! Goodness me it was bad. My manager chased me around the office a few times, this was such a red flag.

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.

- 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

Low pay, compensation, benefits and promotion

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!

Office politics can be astonishing. Your experience in the company is very much dependent on your line manager. Arbitrariness and opacity noticed in major company decisions, HR department. Very poor pay. Not for financially-driven individuals A global company that treats employees differently, depending on their location.

Code of conduct does not necessarily apply to some members of the management team. A Manager is toxic and issues of mental health is not taken seriously

- opportunities to rise if you participate well in "politics" - you can secure longevity with your unquestioning subservience (many many line managers) - toxic - too many petty "fights" happening hourly/daily
