Once innovative firm - now in merger hell

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good for people who like working on many projects that may or may not have the experience for. This has an entrepreneurial 'we can do anything' attitude

Cons

Constantly changing goalposts - projects can go on for months and then fizzle out Fix it by Friday mentality - loves to short term fixes. Next to no long term solutions Merger with Dixons now feeling like a takeover, nit a 'marriage of equals'. Steady exit of very experienced CPW staffers who would have been future leaders.

Pros

None what so ever the company is terrible. Im yet to work with a manager that isnt an idiot

Cons

the company is falling apart The entire working system is awful My last manager was so concentrated on trying to make his staff like her that she failed to b a proper manager. Basically she is owned n dictated to by the staff they tell her when they feel like working and she cant get them to do anything unless they feel like it! Couldnt organise a punch up in a brewery!
