Pros

Building is great and location is hard to beat. Great option if your someone who wants to go into an office everyday and doesn’t mind the commute and don’t want to travel often for work.

Cons

Leadership throughout HR is lackluster at best. Disorganization and unclear priorities as well as communication to employees about expectations. Some of the weakest managers I have ever had to work with. challenge to have your ideas heard or taken into consideration without having to climb the chain of command. Do not work here if your expecting work from home flexibility or flexible work arrangements.

Pros

Great Office, Free Snacks and plenty of social events

Cons

Be prepared for a heavily politicised culture — it's pervasive and affects day-to-day working life significantly. The organisation suffers from clear in-group favouritism at the leadership level, where certain groups are visibly preferred for opportunities, recognition, and advancement. This creates an uneven playing field and quietly damages morale for those outside those circles. Leadership collaboration leaves a lot to be desired. In four years, I didn't experience a single structured team-building or bonding initiative — a telling sign of how little investment goes into people and team cohesion. Perhaps most concerning is the approach to compliance. Raising legitimate concerns or challenging existing practices is met with significant resistance from senior stakeholders, rather than genuine engagement. A culture where pushback replaces accountability is one worth approaching with caution.
