Pact Reviews

The CEO and Leadership team are openly untrusting of staff and unsupportive. It is quite a boys club, there for women especially are treated quite patronisingly. The HR consultant is explicitly company first Staff second, so support is minimal and issues that arise are solved with a company bias. Office culture and moral seems generally low because of this. There are little to no benefits, no sick pay, no health care, no bonus scheme and only the most basic pension scheme. Much of what the policy's claim to be allowed are generally not when it comes to requesting them. There is no real growth/learning opportunities or chances to learn or improve within a career here.

Anyone familiar with the work of Simon Simek will understand the concept of 'leaders eating last', which I would interpret as doing everything in their power to ensure that the team below them were supported and given everything they needed to achieve. At Pact, I didn't get the reservation. In my case, I (and the agencies we worked with) were managed out and given very loose reasons as to why - replaced by friends and trustees. This happened with no previous negative comment on my performance, three weeks after my probation had finished, a day after my holiday, and without HR representation present. Heartless and wrong for a company who live and die by their strong ethics.
