Vantaggi
Good coworkers, beautiful London office
Svantaggi
Disgusting management, head of departments can’t take decisions, HR taking all decisions in all aspects, do not care about employees, looking just for profit, no flexibility in working hours or working place, even move working hours for 5 minutes unacceptable for them
Vantaggi
On site staff and management are some of the nicest and most hardworking people.
Svantaggi
Absolutely not worth it for the low pay. Considering it’s 7p above minimum (not living) wage, the work itself is pretty demanding. Mostly because the endless cost cutting leaves you with an always understaffed team and limited resources. The constant barrage of criticism from higher management is unnecessarily harsh and degrades the working relationship between the team and our managers because everything is filtered down through them as a draconian chain of command. Everyone toiling underneath the core boys club who see this company as a calf to be fattened for sale are always stressed and lack flexibility with hours or work life balance. Everything is within the bare minimum requirement of legality and workers entitlements, this place wants you stressed and desperate while the higher ups treat it as a free network of hotels to gander around in. The culture and energy is neurotic, colourless and corporate, you could go on and on but why bother it’s just not worth it.
Vantaggi
The only positive is the time before the new CEO came in and the relief when you are away from this company.
Svantaggi
A group of misogynistic, immature middle-aged men is destroying a company and its corporate culture, operating on the edge of what is legally permissible. Anyone who doesn’t play along with this game is ignored and pushed out; yes-men are promoted and regarded as good employees. In the end, every single person is just a pawn in the theater of a few sociopaths in management, whose sole purpose is to bleed the company dry in order to sell it at the highest possible price, cash in on bonuses, and stroke their own egos. Good employees are fired or driven away to make room for the CEO’s old companions, who actively support him in his mission and his charade. This management is driven solely by its own greed and lacks any behavior that could be described as leadership, empathy, or respect. Rather, they act like a swarm of locusts, devouring everything and leaving nothing positive behind. Anyone who wants to achieve something in their job, make a difference, or simply be respected as a human being is in the wrong place here. This is a suicide mission that drives even the most resilient and robust people into burnout in short notice of time.
