Pros

A great place to work, the team is friendly and there is a nice atmosphere in the office. The company is doing well, and it is an exciting time to be a part of the brand in a period of positive growth. Good company perks: -50% off clothing & free clothing given regularly -lunch provided 3 days a week -Bupa healthcare after 2 years

Cons

No flexible working, it is 5 days a week in the office with no work from home days offered. The maternity package is not great, which is disappointing considering the company has a majority female staff & is family owned.  Lack of internal promotion. The company is growing fast and making quite a lot of new hires, but there is little room for growth or promotion for existing staff.

Pros

Free lunches is the best pro Work life balance is ok Senior Management was nice but now is not HR is really supportive

Cons

No room for progression at all, unless you are friends with someone at head office. They promise internal growth but always hire externally. Several people have gone for interviews and then just not heard back at all which is terrible / heard about internal position via linked in. It’s all abit of a mess. Not very inclusive at all! Quite concerning. Really embarrassing maternity package considering it’s female founded and family run business …..
