Pros

Great colleagues. Generally there is a sense that work-life balance is encouraged although the goals and deadlines don't reflect that. There are some nice employee perks like free coffee, subsidised canteen etc.

Cons

Terrible communication across teams, you often find you're duplicating effort and another team is working on exactly the same thing that you are. Complete lack of resources to develop any technical products or solutions outside the core platforms. Constantly making irritating changes to work environment and practices, e.g. forcing everyone off networked drives and bringing in hotdesking, and a general sense that money saving is more important than employee wellbeing or productivity.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts from our New York office. We have a great team; our purpose and culture continue to be 'stand out' and some of the reasons so many colleagues stay with us longer term. We are collaborative and progressive and everyday we contribute to learnings for generations to come.

Thank you for sharing your review. We kicked off our second Career Growth Week so far this year with a focus on feedback which underpins growth at every level. Alongside the flagship sessions, colleagues took part in a wide range of virtual events across the week. These included popular sessions like building skills through feedback, Forward Talk, AI-powered feedback, “expert” careers and mentoring panels, the Facilitation Marathon, and a LinkedIn personal branding workshop, as well as practical learning through the Level up: boost your skills and Talent Attraction sessions. Perhaps look out for the next one which will be in a few months time. Colleague development is core to our organisation.
