Vantaggi

The title might appear to be run well, however, the only good thing there is the training for new inexperienced staff but the old school trainers up in Birmingham. Beth and Trish are stars.

Svantaggi

The place is falling apart. Run by individuals concerned about their egos. If you ever give feedback it is swept under the rug or it's your own fault. Rafts of tenured people are leaving, "don't blame us - it's COVID that ruined the culture" = the last lock down was almost 2 years ago. Inflexible old school management, good at running small branches but woefully out of their intellectual capacity in the flagship branch. Refusing to let managers run their respective teams, but instead micromanage every decision. Relentless meetings about nothing, wasting your time. No discretion as a manager, just constant wayward CEO speech rolling out their narrative. Full of 'yes men' - too afraid to give their own opinion, so fall in line instead. Relentless KPI monitoring that wastes so much time, you run out of time to help and coach. Culture is so bad Directors beg their managers to toe the line and conform in constant 'meeting room' chats, with the promise of getting larger teams and more responsibility.

Vantaggi

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Svantaggi

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
