Pros

Not any pros apart from ok pay

Cons

Extreme department silo working, each department will not help each other. No trust of internal employees to share internal information required to do your job. Poor communication of matrix structure from top down. No training provided on internal systems, had to request access to required systems myself due to no induction. Extremely outdated systems and processes - employees follow processes even when not fit for purpose. You will find people have either been there 20+ years or leave after 12 months - hence the old fashioned processes still in place.

Pros

Learning opportunities People are nice and willing to teach/learn

Cons

No room to move up, though you’re encouraged to grow your skillset Very few hiring opportunities, no backfilling of positions In order to move up, you must show you can perform at that next level, while still doing your current job Very few promotion cycles (1-2/yr) Ineffective management Recent layoffs (2025-2016)
