Vantaggi
The hype around Unleashed is positive. It really feels like you are building something special. "Good Products Matter" is what Unleashed stands for and we work with lots of unique businesses doing some great work.
Svantaggi
- Generally poor benefits and compensation compared to competitors - Review of benefits is constantly promised but never addressed. For example holiday has finally been increased from 20 days. Unfortunately not by Unleashed caring about staff but by contract alignment due to the Access Group purchase - The old fashioned "Better together" policy means we all have to go to the office. - Since being acquired by Access Group we've seen a number of key personnel leave including most recently the company's founder. These are people who I saw as part of the core Unleashed team and personality of the company. More concerning is I have experienced bullying and favouritism myself as well as having seen incidents in meetings of it. Afterwards I've sometimes spoken to colleagues and we are shocked by what's been said. Particularly concerning is the behaviour of one senior person who consistently says inappropriate things about staff to staff. This covers everything from their job performance, to personal things about them or their family which should really be kept private. Finally it doesn't feel like a safe place to provide feedback as any employee survey is picked apart as a witch hunt to try and establish the source of the feedback so everyone has stopped through fear of future issues. It's not even possible to go to HR as the person responsible is also a friend of the exec who often makes these remarks.
