Pros
• Some colleagues are great to work with. • Decent benefits compared to industry standards.
Cons
• Toxic leadership - senior management fosters a culture of fear and micromanagement rather than trust and development. Employees are not valued and decisions seem arbitrary. • There’s a disconnect between leadership and staff. Communication is poor and major decisions happen without employee input. • There’s a high turnover of staff. Directors leave without much explanation, almost like they’re fired. The high turnover is also down to lack of career progression and growth. Instead of addressing issues, blame culture happens. The reviews about bullying are all true. It happens time and time again. The leadership team hire the same people who then do the same things. Promotions and opportunities seem to be based more on favoritism than merit. • The culture affects mental health and wellbeing despite the company claiming to care. • Toxic leadership - senior management fosters a culture of fear and micromanagement rather than trust and development.

Complaints are ignored or brushed aside, leaving employees with no real support.
