Pros

A few good people in the company.

Cons

A manager who moaned about everything, from me deciding to not eat my lunch (on my unpaid lunch break) in the staff kitchen, to 'not talking enough'. Even for using the wrong colour pen. Repeatedly called me a liar, for saying I can't remember a random amount from a few days ago, and for once being a few minutes late due to a broken down lorry blocking the entrance to the industrial estate the office was located on (a colleague confirmed this was true). This genuinely isn't hyperbole, it genuinely was the biggest mistake of my career accepting the employment. This was the only employment I walked out on mid shift and didn't work my notice. 3 month notice period after 6 month probation. GDPR compliance was at best questionable, no discretion or privacy when talking about fellow employees and candidates that have been interviewed. They claim to be 'Covid secure' but were very hostile to me taking sometime off to get my second Covid jab (it was almost 12 weeks since my first jab, so needed to get it done), they wouldn't allow time off for a medical appointment, nor allow me to use any annual leave, they made me make up the time (something no other employer has done, as all previous either allow a couple of hours for medical appointments, the ones that don't allow the use of annual leave).

Pros

This company has continually pushed me to knew heights, i have progressed significantly since i started here and i always feel i have the support of everyone around me at all times. Managers & Directors are approachable & there doors are always open if you need any help The company is flexible regarding different work needs, they are understanding at all times There is a clear line of progression and you are given the power to grow as you see fit

Cons

Very little, you are given the freedom to complete your role how you see fit, there is no micro management here, be prepared to work hard and become master of your own destiny!

Pros

Some of the staff were really friendly that’s about the only pro to working here. Free parking right by the office

Cons

*no concept or consideration for GDPR, not applied, not enforced by management and even the MD has files laying around everywhere. * completely inflexible * no discretion, they will openly discuss other candidates/employees and have no hesitation in talking negatively behind their backs * office is not covid secure despite them being insistent that it is * staff do not feel that management are approachable and staff are dragged over hot coals if a mistake is made * staff seem to suddenly just not be there anymore then there are rumours of u fair dismissals etc swirling around. Very little integrity! The day is longer than most offices and rumour is that it’s because if you finish later you “switch off” at 5 not earlier so they get a full days work from you.
