Pros

Some good colleagues and learning opportunities depending on the team.

Cons

Very poor management culture with excessive micromanagement and little trust in employees. Salary growth is disappointing, with minimal or no yearly hikes despite hard work and performance. There is noticeable partiality within teams, and professionalism is lacking in some areas. Work-life balance is extremely poor, especially for working parents and new mums. Flexible work arrangements are not genuinely supported and often become a source of stress rather than support. Management does not seem to prioritise employee mental health or family responsibilities. Overall, the environment can feel unsupportive, exhausting, and not employee-focused.
