Pros

Great variety of work and some really nice people

Cons

Very toxic environment, senior management is appalling yet nothing done about it as they’re all friends/ex colleagues. They do not communicate to their staff, barely visible, constantly lie/withhold information. If you’re not part of the clique then you’re invisible. No quality of life, they expect you to live and breathe the company. The company attitude stinks towards the clients and its employees. Loads of silly unnecessary processes/decisions which cause a lot of people stress. If you like to be overworked and do multiple jobs but still paid the same salary, efforts not really reflected in your bonus, no life, toxic environment then this is the place for you, if not, avoid like the plague. They treat the staff badly despite the whole promotion of values and benefits, they simply don’t care how they treat you, it’s all a front to tick a box. They are also rubbish with the bonuses and pay rises too, really wouldn’t waste your breath

Thank you for taking the time to share such candid feedback. We appreciate you recognising the variety of work and the positive relationships you experienced with some colleagues. We’re genuinely sorry to hear about the wider issues you’ve described. Concerns around culture, leadership behaviour, communication, workload, recognition, and trust are not taken lightly. What you’ve shared highlights a significant gap between how we aim to operate and how that experience felt for you, and we recognise the impact this can have on wellbeing, motivation, and quality of life at work. Listening to our people and acting on feedback is essential, and comments like yours reinforce where improvement is needed-particularly around leadership visibility, transparency, respect, and ensuring our values are consistently lived, not just communicated. If you would feel comfortable doing so, we would welcome the opportunity to have a further conversation and better understand your experience in more detail. You can contact us at rachel.robinson@mgroupltd.com, and any discussion would be treated respectfully and confidentially. Thank you again for sharing your perspective. While we regret that your experience was so negative, your feedback is important and helps inform the changes we need to make moving forward.
