Nice people caught in a world of bureaucracy - Housing Officer Paradigm Housing Group Employee Review

- Free parking, if you get there before 8am in order to get a space. - Offices are a lot more modern than other housing associations. Meeting rooms well equipped for hybrid meetings. - Salaries are higher than equivalent roles in the sector. - Benefits package is good. Annual bonus is unusual for the sector. - If your face fits, you can access training and promotion opportunities.

- Bloated management structure. Assistant Directors and 'Head of' roles for tiny departments with about 3 members of staff. Just loads of overpaid supervisors. - Lots of senior managers have come from outside of the sector and lack understanding of housing. - No soul. Office is quiet, no social side, people don't even talk to each other at lunch. - A bit of a cult. Everything is fine as long as you say the right things. Express an opinion, and you'll very quickly become an outsider. - High turnover of staff, particularly because PHG relies on fixed-term contracts and doesn't give any job security. - Morale is terrible amongst frontline staff, but senior leaders are either oblivious, or don't want to address it. - Long hours with no opportunity for paid overtime.
