      Worst Job I Ever Took

      Pros

      Good bunch of new talented geoscientists coming up the ranks.

      Cons

      Oversold at interview - turn around time for feedback and job offer was ridiculous. Didn't listen to gut and took the job anyway. Big mistake. ION have no integrity or care for their employees. Top heavy on management, ZERO confidence in top level executive leadership and politics galore. Witnessed numerous cases of actual bullying in the Egham office and everyone turned a blind eye. Horrible location - cost to travel there on public transport was extortionate and if you moved to Egham you would be stuck there. Ended up taking me a year to recover my confidence after leaving.

      Pros

      Great campus! Flex time! Good compensation!

      Cons

      The growth of the company changed the great family oriented feeling that was once there. Management is very passive aggressive, never telling you up front if you are lacking or need improvement. However, if their budget begins to fail, you'll certainly be thrown under the bus with no hesitation.

      Top heavy organisation, potentially doomed

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Technically challenging and interesting projects; friendly and helpful colleagues and pretty good working conditions overall with good training to support staff

      Cons

      Top heavy management structures; board and CEO putting the survival of the company at risk through inappropriate strategy decisions; playing at big company corporate America detracts focus from the real issues in the organisation
