Pros

1 - The firm is very young (15 years old) and is experiencing strong growth (both internal and through acquisitions) on a global scale. As the company grows in numbers and locations worldwide opportunities to grow professionally and to move offices multiply quickly. 4 - The great thing is how the business is structured, each office is divided into different teams that focus on one industry; in this way Sia partners trains and develops experts in a field and not the usual one-size-fits all generalist. I honestly feel like I am able to grow quickly, focusing on the industry I am passionate about. 3 - Entrepreneurial mindset 4 - Very Nice People 5 - Generous Benefits

Cons

The London office is growing at a quick pace and needs to readjust some internal mechanisms to allow for a greater number of people.

Pros

- Depending on the business unit, you can find supportive, friendly colleagues. There is a strong sense of camaraderie at the peer level, which makes day-to-day work more pleasant. - There is also a relatively good work-life balance overall. However, it is sometimes unclear whether this is the result of a genuine company culture that prioritizes balance, or rather a consequence of inconsistent planning and organization, which can lead to periods of under- or over-allocation. - Decent healthcare benefits

Cons

- Clear lack of structure and transparency, particularly regarding promotions, bonuses, and compensation adjustments. Processes are inconsistent, often unclear, and sometimes feel arbitrary. In several cases, expected salary adjustments were delayed, minimized, or only granted after persistent follow-up. Bonuses are not always proactively distributed and may require employees to explicitly chase them. - Favoritism is a concern, with recognition and advancement not always based on merit. The culture at higher levels can sometimes feel unprofessional, with blurred boundaries that create discomfort. - Long-term employees tend to feel undervalued over time. Many leave after around two years, often because they see a very limited progression. - Overall impression that the company tends to optimize costs at the expense of employees whenever possible, which affects trust and long-term engagement. - Leadership tolerates or fails to address inappropriate, unprofessional, or toxic behaviors. It can go unchecked for years, with action only taken very late, sometimes for reasons unrelated to the misconduct..
