Avantages
- The team is made up of a very high standard/caliber of analysts which is great to work with - Opportunities to make real impact and bring ideas to the table even at non lead/manager level - Visibility over how business decisions are made and lots of opportunity to learn about business operations + strategy - Fast paced - Reactive - Very good learning opportunities - Nice to be in a female-led, female-dominated data team
Inconvénients
- Progression is slow and seems to only be driven by ambitious employees. Managers don't suggest progression even when it's well deserved. Feels like there's a preference for hiring externally to fill senior roles which is disheartening to longer-term employees - Salary is not very competitive and isn't adjusted annually - Bonus pay out not guaranteed - Work can get repetitive - Some managers are better than others - Method of measuring employee performance has changed lots so is unclear - Work life balance is poor at times due to retail environment (e.g. peak trading) - Remote/WFH policy is 'more in than out' which is contributing to people leaving
