Pros

Good pay and a handful of staff are nice

Cons

The staff can be very unwelcoming and hierarchical behaviour is encouraged by directors. There seems to be animosity between the office in London and the regional offices. The Human Resources function is non-existent, I was quite alarmed to know that it is common knowledge, within the organisation, that some staff do not do any work! I was horrified to learn that some staff had been bullied by several senior staff and I could not understand why this is allowed when one of the things Article 19 does is to fight impunity.... Career opportunities do exist but not for everyone. I found out that quite a few people have been promoted into senior positions but they lack basic management skills and management training does not appear to be a priority There is no diversity outside of the finance team.
