Pros

Good projects, some good people but they come and go ... churn is incredible and a result of the marketing spin

Cons

Leaders don't listen or engage with clients. At my exit interview the regional leader stated "I don't understand what you do, i don't know whether we should be doing it ..." Clearly disengaged, uninterested, and promoted only because she is a woman. Line Managers don't care - "Just complete you performance goal and we'll talk about them after they're due" ... I spent months with my team during the goal setting period. Regions are Silo'd - Poor Financial Performance - "We offer a minimum 30% return on investment ..." The dividend was at it's lowest level ($5 cf price @$35) when the new CEO started ... Giam Swiegers - After the first year the dividend increased to $6.50 ... The C-Suite were clapping themselves on the back for a marvelous job -" We increased the dividend by 30%, how amazing is that" ... If you speak up an say well that's actually ordinary as it was at $12 2 years ago and other firms are actually providing a 50% return and the economy is booming so you actually haven't done a good job at all ... ?? Offshoring Work - ... Unethical Behaviour - ... Bullying & Harrassment - ...
