Genomics England Reviews

• Heavy bureaucracy slows everything down • Decision making can be painfully slow and unclear • Poor leadership and weak communication from management • Career progression feels limited, Internal promotion system feels unclear, with progression not always appearing to be based on merit or transparent criteria • Innovation is often talked about more than actually enabled • Too much internal process and politics gets in the way of doing good work • Culture can feel inconsistent across teams, depending heavily on your manager • Feedback and concerns do not always seem to lead to meaningful change

Very limited opportunities for progression. Increasingly hierarchical attitude and practices. Recent tech leadership hires have established pattern of hiring old colleagues that look like them and when this is pointed out dramatically disagree to the point where it feels dangerous to your career to make the observation publicly.
