Interesting work - Recensione dipendente - Behavioural Scientist presso The Behaviouralist

Some colleagues were friendly and welcoming.

Very small, disorganised office with a lack of appropriate equipment for an Office Manager to be able to work efficiently. Disjointed, unfriendly and bizarre communication with senior staff member who I was trying to support. Including rude Whatsapp messages and skyping me at 5pm when I was due to leave the office. Snobby and cut-throat, considering how small and unknown the company is. My contract was terminated after 9 days with the reasons given being false. I noticed that only one colleague really asked me anything about myself in the two weeks I was there.

- Flexible working is offered - People are mostly friendly and informal - Room for creative ideas - The concept of Behavioural Science has a lot of potential - Most colleagues are young and very smart - Project work has potential social/environmental impact - Occasional dinners and drinks are paid for by company - There is no culture of working overtime

- Manager seems to have problems with controlling anger towards employees when feeling stressed - this affects wellbeing of young employees - Compensation is low - Employee turnover is high - Company does not invest in employees - No management structure in place (too busy with sales) - Little communication between employees and company owners (academics)
