Pros

Limited positive aspects identified during my employment

Cons

The workplace environment lacked appropriate leadership support and had a significant negative impact on staff wellbeing and professional confidence. Communication from management was often dismissive and belittling, with limited guidance, support, or constructive feedback provided to staff. Rather than offering advice or assisting employees to develop their skills and understanding, interactions were frequently focused on criticism. When I commenced employment, there was little to no onboarding process in place. Opportunities for shadowing, training, or gradual learning were not provided, despite there being an expectation that staff should already know how to manage the role and responsibilities. There was also minimal support provided in relation to client handovers, which made transitioning into the role more difficult. Overall, the primary challenges within the workplace stemmed from poor management practices and a lack of adequate leadership and support.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review for the third time. Interestingly, the original version of your review, which remained publicly available throughout your entire employment, described 2b Inclusive as having an "extremely supportive" workplace environment, with "resources and training provided by the leadership team" being "second to none". You also noted that staff would be "supported" and "not overworked". We appreciate that views may change over time and hope that expressing your perspective has provided you with some closure.

Pros

Supportive team environment. Management genuinely cared about participants and staff. Strong focus on ethical practice and doing the right thing. Clear expectations and professional standards. Staff reset days were a great way to connect with colleagues. Good workplace culture. Participant outcomes always came first. I worked here for about a year and had a really positive experience. The team was supportive, friendly, and genuinely cared about achieving the best outcomes for participants. There was a strong focus on professionalism, ethical practice, and accountability, which I think is exactly what you want in this field. Management set clear expectations and always put participants first. They were also supportive when I made the decision to move into a different career path and treated me with respect throughout the process. Reading some of the negative reviews was surprising because they don't reflect the workplace I experienced. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but from what I saw, the organisation simply expected staff to meet professional standards, act ethically, and take responsibility for their work. Those expectations were applied consistently and were always centred around providing quality support to participants. No workplace is perfect, but my experience was overwhelmingly positive. I learned a lot during my time there, worked with some great people, and would happily recommend the organisation to others.

Cons

The expectations and accountability can be challenging for some people.

Pros

2b Inclusive is one of the few organisations I have worked for where the wellbeing of both participants and staff is genuinely prioritised. Leadership is approachable, supportive, and actively seeks input from team members. Staff are regularly included in discussions and decisions, and there is a culture of collaboration rather than top-down management. The organisation is deeply committed to providing high-quality, ethical support to participants and ensuring that decisions are made in their best interests. There is a strong focus on person-centred and neuro-affirming practice, and the leadership team consistently demonstrates care and compassion for the people we support. One thing that stands out is the investment in staff wellbeing. Every 12 weeks, the organisation holds staff reset days focused on reflection, connection, self-care, and professional growth. These are meaningful experiences that go far beyond the typical workplace pizza lunch and demonstrate a genuine commitment to supporting staff both professionally and personally. There are excellent opportunities for professional development, clinical support, peer collaboration, and ongoing learning. I have always felt listened to, respected, and encouraged to contribute ideas. When I joined 2b Inclusive, I received support from experienced practitioners, opportunities to observe and learn from colleagues, ongoing supervision, and the clinical lead is ALWAYS available.

Cons

After experiencing the staff reset days, genuine leadership support, and being included in organisational decisions, my expectations of future employers have become unrealistically high.
