A flurry of HR unprofessionalism ruined an otherwise positive experience
Pros
Generally supportive environment Nice location Everyone takes hour lunches
Cons
I had a very decent few months at Lawley, throughout which I was praised by office staff and gradually entrusted with more work as I proved myself competent. Then one day, I was called into HR and accused of two personal grievances reported by an anonymous source, neither of which even remotely happened. I was also accused of messing something up work-related, but no details were provided and I had heard nothing about it from my manager prior to that meeting, or after. I wasn't even asked for my side of the story. I was simply chastised, then snapped at by my manager when I inquired about the situation, and then fired via a weekend phone call a day or two later. A truly mind-boggling experience, given the company's solid reputation. But hey, it seems to be an isolated situation, so maybe you'll have a good experience. Go for it.
