Pros
No supportive or positive aspects
Cons
• Unrealistic workload, particularly when acting as the sole marketing resource across multiple brands for an extended period • Lack of independent and consistent HR support; HR responsibilities appeared to change frequently and lacked clear structure • Disciplinary process following a period of bereavement and disability-related absence felt predetermined rather than impartial • Final written warning issued despite medically certified absence related to bereavement and a recognised health condition • Limited understanding and support for chronic health conditions and disabilities • Phased return to work only facilitated due to additional resource, rather than as standard support • Experience of a serious, life-threatening medical condition, with concerns regarding how this was handled and the confidentiality of medical information • Workplace culture concerns, including repeated instances of inappropriate and undermining behaviour from a colleague, which appeared to be widely experienced across the team • Lack of effective management intervention in addressing inappropriate colleague behaviour • Lack of empathy and consistency in handling employee wellbeing, bereavement, and health-related matters
