Pros

Good culture, minimal politics, and a good training program for graduates. Flexible work schedule and good work-life balance. Their IT infrastructure is top-notch. The HR policies are very favorable to employees.

Cons

Pay is very poor. They attract top graduates based on previous glory, and though it is still a good firm (from profitability), it is no longer a good paymaster.

Most of the top talent in senior management has moved, and this has left a lot of ordinary people in mid and senior management.

Hence, there is not much to learn, and challenging projects are very few in offer.

I worked in their Technology division in London for 6 years.

Advice to Management

Pay people fairly and ensure that good people have an opportunity to grow fast.
