arrogant people - mediocre ideas - Recensione dipendente - Employee presso Frontiers

Hi there, Sara here, HR Director from Nov 2019.Thanks for making the time to share your thoughts from your time at Frontiers.Sounds like you had a tough time, especially with some of the project side of things. I would love to say everything has been fixed and we are now a perfect employer, but that wouldn't be true. We are proud to still have an international environment with over 30 nationalities. And although I am British, I'm a proud northerner without an obnoxious accent. We do have some flexibility in our working hours and locations, we introduced a flexible working framework this year so all employees can benefit. Nobody is asked to work 12 hours a day, but we do have some people who are passionate about what they do and they aim high. As we have grown, we have built an appreciation of the balance needed to keep striving for our mission, to make great science open.We continue to invest in management and leadership development because we are proud to promote internally where we can. We like growing our people.We've stopped hiring people as interns, instead investing in building entry level roles that make sense.We do still work on too many things at a time because we have such big aspirations. This is something we are still looking to improve and each quarter and year we aim to get better at a laser focus on our mission - to make great science open.- Sara
