Whitehouse Post Reviews

Initially it's fun to work in an office which is very laid back, good humoured, 'part of a family' sort of feeling etc. But quickly you realise that it's rife with dysfunction, there is a definite split between the older bunch and the juniors working there, which leads to, for want of a better word, bullying. All the assistants would work very long hours, unpaid, and often do more work than the more senior workers, particularly production who seemed to spend a lot of their time on Facebook. Relaxed approach to alcohol in the workplace, during working hours. Usual shifts would be 9am-9pm, and often later. Definitely feeling of 'old boys club', and casual sexism the norm. General disorganisation from everyone. The senior management are completely out of touch with modern technology. Woeful compensation.

This company takes advantage of its lower level employees offering a low level of pay for the amount of work expected. The management team is disconnected from the reality of the workload and struggles faced by their employees. If you’ve been there hoping to get promoted to editor with no end in sight It is time to move on to a company that properly values and compensates their workers or go freelance. I promise you there are better places. Please do not allow yourself to be taken advantage of in this way.
