Pros

Great place to work if you are a white male at Managing Director level or above.

Cons

Upper management completely out of touch with day to day operations. DEI is falsely promoted as a core value. Morale is lowest I’ve seen since 2008 crash.

Pros

Flexible working hours Remote working (only after covid) Nice offices

Cons

- bad management and politics in a toxic environment: everyone from employees to managers keep complaining about everything, trying to find the fault in others instead of improving; proactivity is not welcome here - obsolete technology (15+ years): even if there is motivation to migrate to a newer technology, they succeed only by crippling it and using it as incorrectly as possible, e.g: Agile rollout taking months or even an year, you keep working more on old workarounds than on new solutions. - remote work is degrading due to the continuous disservices with the providers used - don't trust anyone: the new recruits have been hunted as if in a poisoned game - work/human ethic no longer exists: hide as much as possible and work as little as possible

Pros

The salary is ok, though expect no raises.

Cons

I have not gotten a rise in 2 years. I did undergo bullying and nationalism (in case you are not Polish) and was overpressed by my LM till depression. I lost my colleagues one by one for the same or similar reasons until the whole team find itself drowning in work. There is only speaking about career opportunities. And no one would care about it. In my whole life, I haven't had a worse job. P.S. Funny fact. They called asking to arrange a conversation about the reported situation and... never called back and do not answer when I call them. This proves again that no one cares there about people.
