Pros

There are no pros other than reasonable compensation

Cons

Complete lack of respect for employees. This is an environment of bullying, horrendous overwork, unreasonable demands and chronic understaffing in operational areas. The culture they talked about in the Americas is the culture that Kalaris created throughout the firm. All management are interested in is offshoring UK staff and quieting dissent. Morale is the lowest I have ever encountered. A truly horrible environment I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Work life balance? A joke.

Pros

Can’t think of 1. Not even 1.

Cons

Pay is the lowest compared to similar company with the same role. Upper management speaks to staff with a patronizing tone; cutting them off, and talking down to them. At times it felt like they purposefully were attempting to find things wrong instead of working together as a team to meet objectives. Understaffed. Fully expected to do the work of a team of 6 despite being a team of 2 for example.
