Pros

Work place pension and ALS advantage scheme

Cons

Management are inexperienced and lazy. If your face doesn’t fit you don’t progress. I have been a loyal member of staff going on 5 years and I have to continually push to progress and keep getting lame reasons why I cannot. Even though there has been instances of new staff progressing above senior members of staff with no technical experience. Case in point previous starter I trained with no science background or experience is now my team leader and I was advised that she was a stronger candidate, regardless of my science degree and over 10 years experience in other labs. She got the position based on the fact that she was friends with upper management and her face fit.

Thank you for your comment I am very pleased that you see the Work Place Pension and the ALS Advantage scheme as positive. Clearly you are disappointed that you did not get the position you applied for so would suggest that you ask for more feedback. Interviews include an assessment and it would be worthwhile understanding where your development needs are, such that you can progress your career. As a growing company there are always opportunities and we endeavour to help all employees reach their full potential. We would recommend a meeting to discuss further, if you are open to that.
