Pros
- Salary/Benefits package can be very generous compared to wider market - Some great genuine people amongst colleagues - Training/Upskilling opportunities
Cons
- Condescending and patronising line management at times (unconstructive criticism/feedback) - Poor and inefficient methodology - producing excessive documentation for the sake of it! - Total lack of strategy, direction and planning. Some senior leaders should not be where they are because of inexperience or failure to grasp good understanding of what a well functioning IT/Change capability looks like! - Most importantly, as a result of the above point, instead of being encouraging, some managers including a senior "head of dept." often made colleagues to feel demoralised and disheartened leading to a greater feeling of imposter syndrome.
