Ventajas

Big name on CV, ability for global experience

Desventajas

Where do i begin… the majority of the MBD leadership are wholly incompetent with a limited view of the world and even more limited capability for innovation and change. Pitching function runs like a dictatorship from the dark ages. All of the teams are overstretched and overworked. Global teams are most obviously understaffed however the leadership brush this aside by expecting that the members will do extra hours and give more than they are contracted to do whilst badging overtime as a positive. The disparity between London and Manchester is huge. London teams offer minimal output for maximum benefits, whereas the Manchester teams do the majority of the work for little reward - the odd thank you in an email does not make up for all those hours spent creating content and high value work that increases our revenue. Progression is pretty impossible. At best they will stick ‘senior’ at the start of your title but that’s as much as it goes, don’t allow the illusion of career progression cloud your path it just won’t happen.
