Avoid!! - Buying NEXT Employee Review

We never want anyone to feel the way you’ve described, and it's clear there are areas where we need to improve. Your concerns around work-life balance, high pressure, and lack of follow-up after staff surveys are important, and we are committed to addressing these issues.
