HONEST Tale of Two Worlds - Executive Assistant White Swan Data Employee Review

Pros

The sole positive of White Swan Data lies in its staff, who are unrivalled. They comprise a diverse group of individuals with varying disciplines, experiences, and backgrounds. They are the driving force behind the company's operations, serving as the heart of the organisation. Despite the toxic culture that permeates the business, the staff have managed to cultivate their own little community based on honesty, which is truly invaluable.

Cons

The CEO lives up to his reputation on paper, if not worse, but he remains true to himself without pretense. However, the real concern lies with the inexperienced and incompetent COO. This individual poses a threat to the entire organisation, and the longer it takes for management to recognise this, the greater the consequences will be. The COO habitually takes credit for the work of others, a fact well-known among the staff, and is disliked by the vast majority. Moreover, his lack of competency is evident to anyone who interacts with him. He attempts to amass supporters, even extending his influence to HR to enforce his directives, which many employees find disconcerting. If you fail to conform to his control or challenge his authority, he quickly turns hostile, as evidenced by previous incidents. COO is clearly short for ****

Pros

Overall a unique place to work and more fun than other jobs as long as you are willing to work hard. Having an interest in sports or igaming is essential. Would recommend to others but definitely suits a certain kind of person as explained below Lots of opportunity to reach job titles you probably wouldn’t reach at larger companies Company socials were very good Free breakfast and lunch although would have rather foregone that to work more from home CEO is generous with bonuses for those willing to work hard People are great. They’re what make the company so enjoyable to work for Opportunities for travel/networking Opportunities to develop skills/start courses.

Cons

CEO is intense/mental, I didn’t mind him but saw a few people (who had to work close to him) not able to cope and leave early in probation period HR was a bit of a mess, high employee turnover there. More stressful than your average job Found myself often checking work phone when on days off/AL. Not great for work life balance 5 days in the office is a lot and should be adjusted to fit modern work environment. Claim to want to get the best people in but offering a non-competitive work balance contradicts this There were a few hires that were questionable leading to under qualified people in higher up positions which can cause friction when having to work with them. Not sure if this is still the same now

No two days are the same and the company provides the opportunity to work in a plethora of different areas. Environment is fantastic, everyone is incredibly welcoming and friendly.

Cons

Company strategy can be opaque.
