Pros

- Free coffee and soft drinks. - There are some good people; there are just too few of them. - The work, alone, is good to have on a CV.

Cons

- Management does not know what is priority. - Management does not trust employees. - You have to fit in. - In meetings, they will dismiss what you've said, or change the subject before you've said everything you wanted to say. - Your integrity is constantly on trial. - People will ask you to do work that doesn't lead anywhere. - Bullying and intimidation are very common. - Some people are treated much differently than others. - Very vague feedback on performance. - Business IQ is generally low. - Very cliquish. - People who have no leadership skills possess a disproportionate amount of power and influence. - It's purely a popularity contest. - You're objectified; not treated like a person.

Uswitch Response
7y
Gosh, we’re really sorry to hear you had such an awful experience - we have an absolute no tolerance policy to bullying, intimidation and discrimination, so we hope that you flagged this with one of the HR team or through our confidential whistleblowing third-party service? As you may have seen in another of our responses, we’re currently making some significant improvements to our performance management processes, which include clear and measurable ways of working. We believe that these changes will help to set much clearer expectations around behaviour and accountability, particularly for people managers and team leads, so there will be nowhere to hide with behaviour like this!

Revoles around the developers and a few chosen SLT members. Hateful culture - could not wait to leave. Sad fearful culture
