Pros

Easy working hours, iconic offices.

Cons

Factory of temps. No training given, no basic induction, fire training, health & safety, no basic information on the company. People coming and going at a moment's notice, no continuity, projects left half-finished, teams changing constantly. Esp bad in compliance, failing on almost all FSA Handbook areas. Minimal staffing budget from board.

Pros

Good, smart colleagues in other offices.

Cons

At times, decisions appeared to prioritize individual objectives over team needs, which affected collaboration and morale. Greater consideration of team perspectives and shared goals would help build trust and engagement. I observed instances where expectations communicated to the team were not consistently reflected in leadership actions. Greater consistency between stated values and day-to-day decisions would strengthen credibility and confidence within the team.
