You’ll make long lasting friends as there is trauma bonding

Unfortunately, my experience working at this company was overwhelmingly negative. From the beginning, it was clear that the management was disorganised and unsupportive. I often felt undervalued, with unrealistic targets being set and no proper training or guidance provided to help meet them. Despite being repeatedly told we were part of a “family business,” this couldn’t be further from the truth. The reality is that if they don’t like you, they’ll find a reason to get rid of you regardless of your performance or dedication. The only thing that made the experience bearable was the support and friendship of my colleagues. We were all in the same boat, and that sense of solidarity helped us through. However, as more and more of them started to leave many due to burnout, mental health struggles or micro management so it became harder and harder to stay. False promises from management were frequent, and the staff turnover was appalling. In the past two to three years alone, around 50 members of staff have left. Most don’t stay long once they begin to see the impact the environment has on their wellbeing. If you’re considering a role here, I would strongly advise you to think twice. For the sake of your mental health and overall wellbeing, it simply isn’t worth it.

Trauma bonding - you’ll make friends for life over a shared terrible working experience

The CEO Yvonne is very unhappy lady, and she really projects her feelings onto her staff. I lost count of the times she sent people to tears. The most toxic workplace. For a fairly small company, about 14 people left during my short period at perfect portal, it’s no surprise why. The micromanagement is crazy. If you value your mental health and general wellbeing I would highly advise you steer clear. Also if they promise you hybrid working or any kind of bonus structure, they will not keep to these false promises. Stay away!
