Pros

Some of the people working there have become friends I intend to keep for a long time, there are some wonderful people here.

Cons

There is NO sick pay, and 3 occurrences of illness, you WILL receive a formal warning. If you’re late or need to attend a doctors office, you will be asked to make up the time back. The holiday is the basic minimum of 20 days excluding bank holidays. There are NO benefits to working here other than being paid monthly - which is hardly a benefit when the amount isn’t reflected in the responsibilities they like you to have. You won’t be allowed to leave before 17:00, managers will even ask you why you’re attempting to leave at 16:59. There’s emphasis on call centre culture here, and much of what you do is a numbers game. Your job role will be switched and changed like the weather. If you’re away from your desk more than often, they will pull you up. If your clothing isn’t ‘office’ they will pull you up. If a workplace could feel like a prison, this would be it.

Pros

The location of the office

Cons

Lack of actual training and support. The account manager responsible for overseeing my role provided only brief explanations of tasks and expected immediate competency without structured guidance. As he was only present in the office once a week and was the sole person with knowledge of the role, it was extremely difficult to get help when needed. I often had to teach myself processes with minimal direction. The management style contributed to a challenging and uncomfortable work environment. Communication felt restricted, and there was a noticeable culture of blame rather than support. At times, it felt like employees were discouraged from speaking openly, which created a tense atmosphere. I also observed behaviour from management that I felt was unprofessional and, at times, inappropriate toward team members. Overall, the workplace culture felt unsupportive and at times hostile, which made it difficult to succeed in the role. My employment was terminated and I did not feel the decision reflected the lack of proper training and support provided.

Pros

You are given autonomy to create and shape your role at a Senior Level. Everyone is great, there is still a family feel to the business despite its growth trajectory,

Cons

City centre location can sometimes be an issue, but it is my choice to commute and be in the office.
