Not creative and not organised

Pros

Workplace teams look after the teams with food, treats and events.

Cons

Team members are long standing and very cliquey. Management is a mess and unsupportive. No structure or forward thinking. Overall performance is low and teams are inexperienced. No diversity. No real regard for staff. Work moves at a glacial pace. Goal posts get moved too often.
