Warm and proactive organisation - Human Resources Administrator Help Musicians Employee Review

= Good compensation = Nice people = Easy work

= Slow moving = Lack of career progression = Not motivating = Not fast paced or agile

- nice central offices - some really energised, dynamic creative team members (sadly too many work to rule, going through the motions and clearly bored) - best efforts made to match services with need of beneficiaries - really trying to get ahead of the curve but always falling just behind it - genuine effort by workers to team build via a Fun Club with lot of activities organised - generous pension scheme - toil given for all overtime

- very hierarchical structure - only lip service played to diversity particularly at board level - very few opportunities for prof development -with a preference for highly paid interims some of whom have had to be carefully managed as not aligned with the cause and have caused disruption - junior roles carry lots of responsibility not commensurate with their low salaries, eventually if good and bright they leave - lots of hands off strategy makers - no opp to feed back no 360 reviews - a staff forum was set up but has turned out not to be a genuine vehicle for staff feedback and has been derailed with weighty matters that should be dealt with by the HR function - sadly a fear culture dominates with staff members ill inclined to say what they really think or speak up as there is no channel for doing this - stifled, resulting in poor growth as emphasis and focus are often on the wrong things. - myopic and inward looking rather than empowering a growth mindset which will take in some failure - very risk averse, prevents creativity and real growth
