Thank you for your honest feedback. We're happy to hear that you enjoy working alongside friendly colleagues and free daily meals. However, we're sorry to learn that you feel the hours are lengthy and that politics exist in the office. At IMC, we carefully hire people who are prepared for the challenge and sharp learning curve and believe we are transparent about the depth of the role throughout the application process. That said, work/life balance is essential to our employee experience. It's encouraged through bonus annual leave and flexibility built on trust with our employees. We hope you'll reach out to your dedicated HR Business Partner to discuss your concerns in more detail, as we're always open to understanding how we can improve.
