A mass exodus isn't uncommon - Graduate Research Assistant fDi Intelligence Employee Review

Some good colleagues, decent benefits that come with being a part of the FT.

Toxic work culture. Major problems with senior management. 0 prospects of growth or promption and when there is management dishes out promotions based on brown-nosing and sucking up instead of rewarding genuine hard workers. Tight work clique that operates and isolates those who aren't part of the gang. Ridiculously high turnover and new recruits are always fresh graduates - very alienating if you're older than 25. Management will make decisions on your behalf then issue an email on it at 4pm on a Friday before they go on annual leave so it can't be addressed if you even wanted it to. The place is a dumpster fire, if you have an ounce of self-respect don't even consider it.

Flexibility to work from home sometimes

No opportunities to progress and management do not actively encourage this. Suggestions put forward in annual PDR's are rarely followed through. People have been a part of the team for years and remain in one position. Work is very repetitive and staff do not get many opportunities to work on different tasks as numbers is the priority (not staff development). The company is part of the FT which appears to be very active in trying to pursue equality and opportunity, however, the Belfast office (fDi Intelligence) does not follow this in their actions. There are favourites who get the focus and others who get left behind.
