Pros

•Good training programs. •Convenient office location. •Some great colleagues to work with. •Compressed working.

Cons

•Low Pay: The pay doesn’t reflect the effort or workload of employees or support financial stability. •Incompetent leadership: Some senior staff lack the necessary skills, leaving junior staff unsupported and undervalued. •Limited Progression Opportunities: Despite promises of promotions or pay raises for dedicated staff, these rarely come through especially for junior members of staff. •Dismissive of Feedback: Concerns about being overworked or undervalued are brushed aside without real solutions; staff are told they are “putting too much pressure on themselves” and left to deal with this alone. •Poor Work-Life Balance: Concerns about work-life balance are often raised, but there is no emotional or practical support provided to address these issues. •High Turnover Rate: The ongoing issues contribute to a high turnover, leaving teams understaffed for extended periods as they struggle to replace employees - only for the cycle to repeat. •Lack of professionalism: There is a lot of gossip among senior members who undermine and discuss the abilities of their colleagues and ex colleagues, which reflects a clear lack of professionalism.

Pros

- Overall really good company to work for and best position I have had so far - Progression pathways are laid out and when business allows you can progress - Culture and values are really strong - Nice office location - Majority of people are friendly and helpful - If you put the work in you can often succeed and be promoted, not always the case in other companies - CEO and senior managers work hard to make you feel valued even if you feel you are working hard under the radar - Work life balance v good, peaks and troughs in activity avoid burnout - Company care about staff and make sure they are financially stable - Honest culture keeps all staff informed of all business decisions that can be widely shared

Cons

- Lots of junior staff, so can lack experience and learning opportunities if you are more senior and more responsibility falls on you as team need a lot of support - Some long serving staff, which shows they enjoy the company but also can be hard to get to know them on the same level they know one another - Some of the junior staff have really high expectations and can be disappointed easily - Senior staff sometimes have to give emotional support to junior staff who put a lot of pressure on themselves to do well
