No longer a good company culture - Anonymous employee NanoSUN Employee Review

Nice people and benefits, wfh

Low pay bad managment un realistic expectations

WFH, 37 hours (if you’re lucky), some good people, modern office, good equipment.

If you are willing to gamble working for a company that survives on grants with increasing competition, you have to ask yourself if it’s worth the risk for any benefits you may get. They are making a second wave of large redundancies currently. The industry is competitive and the market is very small, so ask questions and gain a real sense of their capability before you consider joining. The leadership is often swings from gaslighting staff into a reassured state to announcing that the company has drastically overspent. There’s no stability but constant drama. They’re known for turning people away 1 day before they’re meant to start, and talking people out of job offers, only to make them redundant months after, while asking them to lie about why they are leaving. They encourage staff to work overtime for shares and reject other jobs for shares, only for them to withdraw from their part of the deal once the work is done. This is a company that despite its shallow promises of virtue, is totally incapable of enacting it. They do practice ‘positive’ discrimination though, so proceed carefully, as career progression here may not be for you. Having capability and demonstrating that isn’t as important as fitting in and not rocking the boat. Promotions are handed to allies without warning or interviews. Management is untrustworthy. There’s a gossip culture usually lead by HR and as a result no confidentially. In general, a toxic atmosphere which despite the encouraged positive reviews here, will shine through if you dig deep enough in your interview. Judge for yourself.
