Pros

Bright, kind, international colleagues trying to solve some of the world's hardest problems. Great London headquarters office location. Good pay and bonus, pension and healthcare, annual leave and parental leave policies. Great support for healthy work life balance. Made a lot of friends with wonderful people!

Cons

Since the pandemic and the 'Reshape' restructuring project announced in 2020, the company leadership and culture really changed -- what used to be a supportive culture became a toxic one, where the senior leadership seemed more interested in preserving their own salary grades than creating a really customer-centric business that would thrive in the energy transition.
