Business Outlook

Pros

Leaves is the only pro I can think of

Cons

The current payroll after revision is still not enough to cover the cost of only living (groceries, rent and travel to work) Employees are overburdened with work and always expected to go above and beyond without any expectations Micromanagement Two of the current roles are doing the same work in different salaries

Great work-life balance with hybrid working Nice office space, with plenty of choices for agile working Plenty of social events and opportunities Raising awareness for inclusion, diversity and social issues Good parental leave, healthcare, pension benefits, bonus scheme, holiday allowance

Cons

Very little room for progression/promotion in certain departments US counterparts seem to get promoted quickly and easily compared to UK Poor communication across departments, resulting in confusion, problems and errors when working together. Issues would be avoided if people took initiative.
