Pros
- Colleagues are, for the most part, helpful and pleasant to work with - Frequent 1-2-1 meetings with my line manager - Little to no micromanagement within my team. - Understanding and supportive managers (at least within my team) they are ready to compromise and find solutions for you. - Training offered and you are encouraged to grow your skillset - Great work life balance. - Comfortable place to work with little office politics
Kontras
- Upper and middle management often removed from the work (where the rubber meets the road) and they tend to make bizarre and incorrect moves, this is things such as pushing employee led OKR and then not listening to input from employees. - No possibility of paid overtime - Bonuses (for non-management employees) are exceedingly rare - Low pay rises - Lack of transparency to the staff from management. For example when Cubic was telling staff that they weren't going to sell and become a private company and then all of a sudden they sold the company.
