Snobby start-up - Office Administrator The Behaviouralist Employee Review

- Flexible working is offered - People are mostly friendly and informal - Room for creative ideas - The concept of Behavioural Science has a lot of potential - Most colleagues are young and very smart - Project work has potential social/environmental impact - Occasional dinners and drinks are paid for by company - There is no culture of working overtime

- Manager seems to have problems with controlling anger towards employees when feeling stressed - this affects wellbeing of young employees - Compensation is low - Employee turnover is high - Company does not invest in employees - No management structure in place (too busy with sales) - Little communication between employees and company owners (academics)

- Work was interesting and varied, both in application area and skills required (researching, data analytics, project management...) - Found a good balance between rigorous academic work and appealing to a wider audience. - All projects were geared towards being socially beneficial. - Felt really supported by management: could always ask questions and request guidance. - Culture was very sociable and collegial. Office in a cool area.

- As with many start ups: stressful at times, projects needed to be finished quickly as deadlines were tight and sometimes variable.
