Pros

Feels like you’re doing something worthwhile working for the NHS, but you are simply cutting back services to save money.

Cons

Awful company, toxic culture and non-existent morale. People come and go, and are miserable while they’re there. Numerous grievances and external investigators against senior leadership, but the company always protects them. Numerous reports of work related burnout and medical issues, INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR by management, non acceptance of sick leave, poor mental health, refusal to promote as lower roles are needed - all covered up by HR and approached with an unsympathetic ear. Company survey feedback is diabolical - people are miserable, sick, burnt out, and not heard. Nothing changes. There are no tangible benefits. ‘Office’ location is sad - a trailor unit, located in the middle of nowhere. New leadership comes and goes, calling the culture toxic. Noting that people fail to say hello to one another, even within teams. People do not communicate with each other, teams do not interact. There is clear favouritism in workload recognition. Save your dignity and sanity and work quite literally anywhere else.
