Pros

Extremely talented workforce (including 1st level management).

Cons

Upper management are horrific, they have completely checked out after the business has been sold and they have made money from their shares. One senior manager always mentions his 'Psychology Degree' is response to constructive discussions, has no idea how to run a department and has very very little sales experience (and was never a top performer). Higher up the tree, a great deal of effort is made to cover up activity which is dubious at best. The department have lost 70% of staff and is massively in the decline, losing extremely talented staff as a result Training for new starters is horrific and scare tactics are used in probation as well as micro-management throughout the company - even the most experienced top performer is micro-managed - which is a detriment to their success. The company pretends that its values are fantastic and upheld, but actually it is just a farce

Pros

I have been with Iris for approximately 5 months and have been incredibly impressed. The people I work with from my peers, leadership (including executive leadership) and my team, are amazing. Building relationships has been easy as most of the employees are open to it, are very collaborative and genuinely want to help! Iris is also focused on equality and ensure we all have a fair opportunity for growth. While we have a lot to do here, it is clear that we are valued.

Cons

As a rapidly growing organization, we have some growing pains and some foundational processes, systems and flow that need to be updated and/or adjusted, but nothing that won't be fixed over time.
