Please read the points below - Recensione dipendente - Systems Engineer presso Together

Thanks for the review. We do invest in talent for the future and like to have annual cohorts of graduates and apprentices to join us at different stages and progress through, supported by learning from more experienced colleagues, technical training and additional qualifications where appropriate. The development of these colleagues, just starting out on their careers, is something that is heavily dependent on learning through experience and coaching by seniors. We do try to keep informed about market rates and undertake reviews to ensure that salaries are competitive. As you’ll know we awarded a 7% pay increase in September 2023 plus consolidated into basic pay a £2,000 allowance that was previously paid during the cost of living crisis throughout the 2022-2023 winter season. We also pay on-call allowances for those who have on-call elements scheduled into their working pattern. Our preference is for colleagues to work from the office. Together has been a hugely successful business for 50 years, built on in person relationships. We find that learning, collaboration and communication is best done in person so ask that people work from the office. This will also support the successful delivery of the huge transformation project that we started a few months ago. This project will deliver new platforms for us to process and manage our customer applications and loans, both regulated and unregulated. This is a significant investment in IT and will bring our customer facing and transaction management systems up to date. We have approximately 400 parking spaces onsite but need more. We are currently trying to find some additional spaces and are paying for 70 spaces at another nearby car park. Colleagues who don’t have a space have been signposted to other local car parks or made aware of where they can park for free within walking distance of the office. We do support cycling with a cycle to work scheme, multiple bike lockers and onsite showers. Have you raised with Facilities if there isn’t room for your bike? We regular breakfast meetings with a member of the Exec. If you have questions about decisions that are made I'd recommend attending one of these and asking the hosting Exec for their view. You can ask to attend one of these by emailing Internal Communications.
