Pros
Most of the colleagues are amazing to work with and friendly. Hybrid working. The company is growing fast with a-lot of available opportunities in different departments
Cons
Overworked, underpaid. Culture in Investor Insight is appalling. The head will try to scare and intimidate you out of your job but actively discuss and wonder why the staff turnover is exceptionally high. Insight have adopted a new micromanagement and toxic culture within the team with many no longer wanting to be a part of that team but can’t speak up due to internal repercussions. Everything is for perception and will do their best to look like the best team in the company, but it isn't. We got a new office around a year ago, but don’t you dare let your manager catch you playing on them as it doesn’t “look good” to senior management. They are constantly comparing themselves with Treasury. A promotion is only guaranteed if you have a good relationship with management or threaten to leave (Nearly every single promotion). You can hand in your resignation and get a promotion for doing the bare minimum work in insight. Just make sure your chummy with the boss and you'll even get a new role specifically made for you. No more liaising with clients. You are seen as a good worker by micromanaging rather than the actual work you do. Management do not care about staff progression and only their own. There is no recognition in insight and if you voice your concerns you are seen as a problem. There is no work life balance at Colmore, and many staff do long hours as it is expected.
