Pros

Flexible working arrangements are generally good and there are some genuinely supportive colleagues who try to help each other out and make things work despite challenges. The benefits package (except the wage) is solid, including private healthcare and salary sacrifice schemes, which are appreciated.

Cons

Feels heavily sales-led, with priorities shifting frequently depending on what's in vogue rather than a clearly defined long-term strategy. This creates a reactive environment and make it difficult for teams to plan effectively or maintain consistent focus. Investment in employee development is limited. While some training opportunities exist, meaningful support for additive professional development or dedicated time to build new skills often feels lacking unless it directly aligns with partner certifications or comes at little cost to the business. Compensation feels below wider market benchmarks in some areas, and progression year to year is modest relative to the expectations placed on employees. Workloads are demanding and teams often appear under-resourced, which contributes to a generally pressured working environment. While there are occasional engagement initiatives, they feel quite surface-level and don’t necessarily address the underlying issues affecting morale. The integration of previously acquired companies still appears incomplete, with processes and teams sometimes operating in silos. This makes collaboration and consistency across the organisation more difficult than it should be this far on.
