Good place to start career, extremely weak progression - Recensione dipendente - Engineer presso CPI

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear your positive comments about the work–life balance and the friendly, supportive colleagues across the organisation. We also recognise the concerns you’ve raised around career progression, compensation, and the experience of working within a grant‑funded environment. These are important topics, and we understand how they can shape day‑to‑day experience and long‑term engagement. On progression and compensation specifically, we want to clarify that we have made significant changes this year to strengthen fairness and transparency. Our approach to pay is guided by three principles: pay fairly as one company, pay sustainably, and performance‑led pay. We have revised our merit process to ensure increases are awarded fairly across roles and salary ranges. Updated guidance on our pay framework and the 2026 merit process has been shared with colleagues to ensure clarity and alignment. We appreciate your suggestions on giving teams greater autonomy and investing more deeply in specific areas. Exploring new ways of empowering teams and improving commercial outcomes is an ongoing conversation, and feedback like this helps shape that thinking. Thanks again for your feedback and we wish you the best for the future.
