Pros
People are nice Work is straightforward
Cons
Pay! We haven’t had a pay increase which is being held hostage during conversations with a useless union whilst we all feel the cost of living crisis. Hybrid - not competitive and arbitrary presenteeism in office with the current CEO genuinely admonishing us all in a morale boosting meeting as our big peak period kicked off about feedback on this. You Couldn’t make this up! Progression - new roles are being sought externally at nearly every turn in my experience because they are not equipped to grow people. IT - bad word in every company but this fails on a such a frequent basis that it’s genuinely becoming an embarrassment to work for AQA as everything keeps failing and we sleepwalk into a bigger existential problem
