Vantaggi

- somewhere to get experience if you’re struggling to get a foothold in the industry - convenient location - really nice colleagues

Svantaggi

- the worst company culture ever - owner-managers do not care about employees at all - well below industry average pay -you will be have to lie to clients, make poor-quality work you are embarrassed by and perform dishonest and even illegal activities like leaving fake reviews (I am 100% certain that the positive reviews here were left by the owners) -owner managers create a culture of fear and silence, they read your Skype conversations and emails, employees socialising or talking to each other is hugely frowned upon and discouraged - when you leave, owner-managers take huge offence and will refuse to give you a reference or only provide a reference confirming your employment dates, which is unfortunate given that... - staff turnover is so high due to the toxic atmosphere that almost the whole staff is replaced within a year - owner-managers blame everything on employees while taking credit for their work to clients and constantly talk smack about people who used to work at the company in an incredibly unprofessional way (including to clients) -creepy and inappropriate comments from male owner-manager to young female staff -owner-managers are in a relationship and will fight and yell at each other in the office in front of staff -lack of transparency about company ownership, you will be paid by a separate holding company (if you get payslips at all), I tried to figure this out on Company House and it's bewildering, stinks of tax evasion - you will never visit the doctor or dentist again - if you do, they will take it out of your (legal minimum) holiday - no benefits - management lies to staff constantly, making promises about changes, raises and expansions that never happen - also promises bonuses that never materialise - owner-managers are pretty much Amy’s Baking company from Ramsey’s kitchen nightmares - your self esteem and self worth will be so destroyed by working here it will take you years to recover

Vantaggi

Absolutely nothing, except some colleagues

Svantaggi

If you’re looking for a workplace where you’re trusted, supported, and treated like a professional, look elsewhere. The culture is built around control rather than leadership. Employees are actively discouraged from socialising, to the point where even taking lunch together isn’t allowed. Instead of encouraging teamwork, the environment feels isolating and demoralising. Support from senior staff is virtually non-existent. You’re expected to go through them for everything, yet they’re rarely available when you actually need them. This creates endless bottlenecks, delays work unnecessarily, and leaves employees being held accountable for problems they have no power to solve. Poor planning is the norm. Everything is suddenly “urgent” at the last minute, often because of avoidable management failures. Rather than taking responsibility, the pressure is simply pushed onto everyone else. You’re expected to constantly drop everything to deal with manufactured emergencies. There is a clear imbalance of power, with some senior staff appearing more interested in maintaining control than enabling people to do their jobs. Initiative isn’t rewarded, communication is poor, and the lack of trust is obvious in day-to-day working practices. The result is a stressful, frustrating workplace where morale suffers, collaboration is stifled, and employees are set up to fail instead of being given the tools to succeed. There are far better employers out there who understand that treating people with respect and trusting them to do their jobs leads to better outcomes for everyone. Stay away
