Pros

The role offered flexibility through remote working, which allowed for better work-life balance and reduced day-to-day micromanagement. Access to LinkedIn Learning was also a strong benefit, particularly for the technical team, and supported ongoing professional development.

Cons

I struggled to see a clear path for progression, and there was limited encouragement to go beyond the scope of my role. When I did take on additional responsibilities, it often resulted in increased workload rather than meaningful recognition. While team acknowledgements were appreciated, they weren’t accompanied by tangible rewards. At times, it felt as though roles not directly tied to revenue generation were perceived as less valuable. Additionally, there was a lack of support, and workloads often felt heavy. Decisions appeared to be primarily driven by cost-saving measures, which sometimes impacted morale and team sustainability.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that the flexibility offered through remote working, the focus on work–life balance and access to learning tools such as LinkedIn Learning were positive aspects of your experience with us. We’re also sorry to hear that you faced challenges around progression, recognition and workload. Feeling unclear about career development or that additional responsibility isn’t acknowledged in a meaningful way can be discouraging, and it’s important to us that colleagues feel supported and valued in their roles. We are building on the career framework built last year, to increase visibility of career pathways for our colleagues. Our intention is to provide our colleagues with thriving careers, where they can grow, develop and achieve their career aspirations. We do have recognition and reward schemes in place to help our people feel valued for their contributions and it is a shame if these schemes were not used to show gratitude for the additional responsibilities taken on within your role. This year we are actively encouraging everyone to focus on wellbeing - this includes managing workloads, reducing stress and promoting better work/life balance. We are confident that our wellbeing strategy will have a significant impact for our colleagues this year. Your feedback on how non‑revenue roles are perceived, and the impact of cost‑driven decision making on workloads and morale, is particularly important. This highlights a need to improve transparency in our decision-making and communication about changes. Thank you again for taking the time to share your perspective, and for the contributions you made during your time at LRQA. We wish you every success in your future career.

Being part of the LRQA team means every employee has a voice, every idea is welcome, and collaboration is key. If you're a driven professional looking to make a difference, focused on delivering results, with high energy who is proactive, thrives while working at pace, and excited to work with an amazing team, LRQA is a great organization to work for.

Cons

Work-life balance is encouraged but can be a challenge because we have so much to achieve. Ultimately, it is up to each individual to set and stick to their working hours.
