Pros

Allwyn UK is such an amazing and exciting place to work - the company will soon become the UK's National Lottery operator, and there is so much buzz around it. The work is challenging, but genuinely rewarding - especially given all the good the lottery does for people up and down the country. I love working with my colleagues - they're dynamic, fun, and really professional - so it all adds up to a great environment to work in.

Cons

There's not really anything to say!

Pros

Some good health benefits as they know they are going to stress you out with their incompetence.

Cons

Horrific place to work. Do not work here. I chose to leave despite consistently receiving positive feedback about my performance because the leadership was extremely disorganised, inconsistent and unprofessional. Expectations were constantly changing, priorities shifted without warning, and there was little accountability from management when mistakes were made. It created an environment where it was nearly impossible to succeed, regardless of how hard you worked. My direct manager presented himself as supportive and positive in public, but behind closed doors frequently spoke about employees in a disrespectful and demeaning way, describing people as incompetent or unintelligent. He was especially two-faced with his direct reports. That behaviour destroyed trust and created a toxic culture. Having been involved in executive-level discussions, I came away with the clear impression that employees were viewed as disposable rather than valued. High performers were not recognised or protected, and loyalty or good performance offered no security. This is not an organisation where talented people can do their best work or expect fair, competent leadership. Leaving was one of the best career decisions I've made, and I would strongly discourage anyone considering working here.

Pros

I wouldn’t say there was any aside from it’s a stable company to work at

Cons

- management across talent and people is questionable, overheard multiple conversations talking about other people in the business that should certainly have been confidential - Talent team is a bit discombobulated, have never felt so uncomfortable in a workplace, have been lied to about multiple things such as internal vacancies and being talked down to by management - extremely cliquey environment
