Pros

Some colleagues are supportive, and the job itself can be straightforward.

Cons

Unfortunately, my experience was overshadowed by serious issues within the management and workplace culture. • Management lacks basic leadership and communication skills. • Health and safety concerns are frequently ignored or covered up, even when staff are affected. • There is a culture of secrecy and distrust — some employees are used to monitor others and report back. • Accusations are made without evidence, and any requests for clarification or proof are completely dismissed. • Expectations are unclear, yet you’re still blamed when something isn’t done “correctly.” • Two-faced behaviour is common — things may seem fine to your face, but there’s a lot of negativity and gossip behind the scenes.

Pros

I worked here for a while I liked the free bread and the friendly people, it was a good job and I think people care. I found that it was a bit stuck with the times but now they have investment i can see their team is growing. There is new IT leadership and my ex colleagues say it’s a positive change. I was paid ok for what I did. The company love bread, so if you are a bread fan then it might work for you.

Cons

Lean team, but I think this has changed now. No health care or premium perks. I also think the bonus was a little low compared to the job I’m in now.
