Pros

Recognised name on a CV and early exposure to large accounts.

Cons

Toxic and, at times, deeply inappropriate culture. I experienced behaviour that felt misogynistic, including at senior level, which did not reflect a professional workplace. When concerns were raised, they were dismissed or minimised. This created a hostile environment where speaking up felt discouraged rather than supported. The impact on wellbeing was significant. I required external support as a result, and I was not alone—other junior women were also visibly affected, with some leaving under difficult circumstances.

Pros

Sell you the dream, tell you they are a people first employer but couldn’t be further from truth

Cons

After 8 years working for the business, forced me out. No support provided when times got tough and targets went up. Find a way of forcing you out
