Pros

Good training for entry level American training staff are amazing London Team Leader is excellent

Cons

Everything written about London Office from 2019-2021 are still accurate/valid points to this day. No career progression, London office is a farm. High turnover rate. Unreasonable hours, they promise hybrid working and alternative time slots, providing you pass compliancy and exams, but they lie and make you do the hours they have already set. Constantly moving the goal posts. They use excuses to make it seem like you need to work in the office. When training they tell you, you have 15 minutes to work on a phonecall/e-mail issue, when joining day to day staff, it goes down to 6 minutes. Which is impossible if you're working for 10-15 different law firms and it takes 2-5 minutes jumping through multiple systems to even begin to connect to the customer's computer. They're very pedantic with the tickets, worried more about how the ticket looks presentable than the job itself. Second line escalated tickets come back with stupid reasons, everyone playing hot potato with the job/work. Firms that you're supporting don't have proper IT infrastructure or are good at handling outages (which are often) if it breaks, you get flooded with calls. Leveraged (multiple firms) teams are screwed, if you're dedicated to 1 law firm, you're somewhat learning. This is a call center, not an IT service desk.

Pros

The compensation seems to match market rates

Cons

Not a great company to work for long-term. There have been consistent layoffs since I started 3 years ago, and the entire team I used to work with has changed completely in those 3 years. Layoffs seem to disproportionately target minorities and women. I have watched the department and team I am in slowly be pushed out by a few toxic individuals who now have a great degree of control over the department. I would not recommend it for women, as I was informed by HR that multiple people went to them with complaints about a couple of individuals, and those individuals were only given more responsibility and control over time (I cannot say if any disciplinary action occurred beyond a "talking to" even after multiple complaints). It is disheartening to see such people thrive in the company, and to me says a lot about the ethics of the company overall and those who work there in management roles. Some high level positions were recently replaced (i.e. CEO) so I foresee layoffs again this coming year. There is also a very strong finger pointing/blame culture, propagated mostly by a few toxic individuals on the project management and client services side. Techs, clients and minorities are consistently on the blamed side during many internal meetings with these individuals.
