Pros

Entrepreneurial spirit, good opportunities for business partnering and collaboration without stifling red tape. Great portfolio of internationally recognised brands. Some great and super smart people in the finance team. Nice team socials.

Cons

Unrealistic workloads, a lot of people suffering from burn out. Nepotism huge problem here. Often people are pushed up the ranks on the say so of line managers with no sense or regard for merit, but purely on favouritism. This usually occurs without any due process and solely on the word of managers who are all pals with each other. Nothing short of corruption in my opinion. Shocking that such practices are allowed at a time when transparency is meant to be the way. Very poor line management, I was once berated for logging off three minutes early, but when I came in early and stayed late for month end duties, it was never noticed. Yet others within the team are consistently late everyday and leave early.

Pros

Feel that the pay is above market standard for similar roles.

Cons

Intense, cold, cut throat. Feel like when you speak with any employee they’re burnt out, Managment beyond demanding. High profile brands, don’t align with low end culture.
