Pros

There are some amazing, supportive staff.

Cons

Extremely toxic culture. Bullying from the top. Gossip spread around by exec level staff. Dodgy hiring/ firing practices. You will likely be underpaid and work obscene hours. You will be made to do way more than you signed up for. If you complain/ ask for help, you’ll be told you’re not managing your time effectively and it’s your fault. Even if you’re doing the job of 5 people. Most of the higher-level management here is poor in the extreme. They’re inexperienced and ineffectual and it shows.

We are sorry to hear that you felt so sad after your time with us. During the height of the pandemic, we were all remote working and working hard in difficult circumstances to keep the business going, we couldn't see how hard some people were working nor did we do a good job of keeping an eye or checking in. All I can say for sure is that if issues are raised, we do our best to resolve them in the right way as soon as possible. This year we have introduced an employee engagement survey that allows anonymous feedback to be heard, shared and acted upon, our CEO has also introduced an open-door policy. We continue to strive to be an employer of choice, through reviewing working practices, benefits, etc. No matter how difficult the feedback is to hear, we will always reflect and keep trying to improve.

Pros

co-workers and the facilities are nice

Cons

management is bad and they do not treat staff well. They try to cover up how bad it is but you see through it early on. Seems like they don't know what they are doing as things are always being "restructured".

Pros

Fascinating subject area Good work life balance Mission driven

Cons

Mass influx of hires (maybe 20% of corporate team) from CEOs previous company, which is from a completely different sector, is bad for culture, morale, and probably performance. Its hard for all climate and nature-tech companies at the moment. It felt particularly hard for NatureMetrics, who lack clear focus and direction. Major decisions are made in management siloes with insufficient influence from the wider team and, critically, insufficient market and customer insight.
