Pros

Work from home flexibility is nice

Cons

Juniors are abused with a large workload and don’t get compensated nearly enough. Managers lie and manipulate to blame junior employees. It’s an extremely cliquey and political culture. One of the top leaders in the company wore a political hat on a Teams call and people never hesitate to fill the Teams chats with liberal political rhetoric. I’m not even political, but this was too much for me. The management are all friends and decide the “in” group. If you’re not in the group, you better be happy waiting a couple years for a promotion. To get in this group you need to Jester around and participate in dumb activities. Your manager will basically make you make a slide show on some popular topic for the useless weekly meeting on Fridays. This is how you get promoted. Jobs in late stage capitalistic society, am I right?

Pros

The junior team is talented and kind. You will learn fast because you have to.

Cons

This company is absolutely disgusting in how it treats people and presents itself. In my experience, favouritism and nepotism shape who gets opportunities, while juniors carry the workload for very little recognition. Senior staff are often disengaged. Juniors stay late and fix the work, seniors collect the credit. I witnessed classist comments and behaviour that marginalised people from working class backgrounds. I also saw racially biased behaviour, including token use of staff in client materials and exclusion from meaningful opportunities. When concerns were raised, the person who spoke up was positioned as the problem. The bullying is subtle at first, then isolating, and it works. Leadership talk a good game about mental health and inclusion on LinkedIn. Inside the building it feels like theatre. You raise a wellbeing concern in a meeting, then walk out to an email assigning more work to you. You are told how you should feel and what you should say. It is manipulative and dehumanising. During my time, clients left and budgets tightened. Rather than fix culture or workload, leadership created new senior titles and hired at the top while pay and progression for the people doing the work stagnated. Several new joiners told me they regretted accepting the offer within weeks. There were also blurred lines and conflicts of interest between senior and junior staff that were widely known and not addressed. It destroys trust and corrodes any sense of merit.

Pros

Apart from senior management, the people that actually do all the work are lovely people to work with. The UK People team are great at what they do The salaries are fair

Cons

Too top heavy, full of cliques and lots of nepotism. The senior management keep enriching their own pockets and do not care about the people. The poor are getting poorer and the rich getting richer! Unfair culture No clear career path or proper management Favouritism and no DEI considerations
