Pros
Working at WorkNest as an HR Advisor has been a genuinely rewarding experience. WorkNest's values and behaviours - integrity, excellence, teamwork and inclusion - aren’t just buzzwords here; they are embedded in the culture and in how we work every day.
One of the standout aspects for me is the strong focus on diversity and inclusion and the role of WorkNest's Inclusion Alliance. There is a clear commitment to creating a welcoming environment where people from all backgrounds feel respected and valued, and initiatives in this space are taken seriously, not just as a tick-box exercise.
The Wellbeing Charter is another great aspect of the culture. It’s not just empty words, it’s reflected in how people are treated. There’s a real emphasis on work-life balance, mental health support, and making sure employees feel heard and supported.
The benefits package is competitive, with flexible working options, generous annual leave, and access to resources that genuinely support both professional and personal wellbeing.
Lastly, the team is fantastic and I’ve felt supported from day one. There’s a real sense of camaraderie across departments, all striving towards the same goal. You are expected to work hard and give 110% but there is genuine recognition and celebration of employees and our achievements. We recently celebrated our annual WorkNest Value Awards where 26 of our colleagues across the business were celebrated and thanked for the incredible work they do.
Cons
As with any growing organisation, there can be moments where change comes quickly, and priorities shift. It’s not necessarily a negative - it’s part of being agile - but it does mean you need to be comfortable with change and be adaptable in these situations.
