Pros

Small work benefits, location, pay.

Cons

Working at the company affected my self-esteem for years after leaving. In my experience, the workplace culture felt toxic and at times patronising, and I personally felt unsupported as a young woman within the environment. I witnessed behaviour that I considered bullying towards other staff members, and I did not feel HR handled concerns appropriately when raised. I also felt aspects of my contract and role expectations were not communicated clearly to me. Despite some minor benefits, the management culture overshadowed the positives for me. High staff turnover was also something I noticed during my time there. Others may have had different experiences, but I would not personally recommend the company to anyone who values a supportive and respectful workplace culture.

Pros

Great people work here- but not for long

Cons

Toxic is an understatement. You have a head of csms who has lost 60% of her staff due to them leaving because of her incompetency The buisness doesn’t know what direction it’s going in- and it changes its mind every day. From elite new acquisition teams to firing the highest performers. Sexism runs deep here- ask anyone about the Christmas parties and you’ll have an understanding Kosovo office is fired every few months and Bristol and ny lose 1/4 of staff every 6 months
