- Most of the best people left, and in many cases have been replaced with weaker capability.
- Expectations have increased significantly across all grades, making progression and promotion far harder to achieve.
- There is constant pressure to bring in work, with a heavy emphasis on business development and building the business on top of demanding client delivery - it’s like doing three jobs at once.
- There are no longer any company-wide socials or fun incentives.
- There have been no pay increases for years, including no proper inflation adjustments.
- Employees are being encouraged to post positive Glassdoor reviews to counterbalance the negative ones, which does not feel like an honest reflection of how people are actually feeling.
- People do not feel valued, morale is at an all time low, and most people are actively looking to leave.
- The overall atmosphere in the office is flat and demoralising, the energy has gone and feels more like a funeral than a workplace.
