Business Outlook

Pros

- Talented, collaborative, and genuinely supportive internal stakeholders

Cons

- Work and projects felt limited in scope and were not particularly engaging or developmental - Concerns around transparency, consistency, and trust within the management/leadership team - A culture where microaggressions often times went unaddressed, with employee wellbeing often feeling procedural rather than genuinely supported - Frequent layoffs, reorganisations, and budget reductions created ongoing uncertainty and instability - Perceived culture of internal politics, favouritism, and unclear decision-making processes
