Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We're really sorry to hear that this has been your experience, especially as this is simply not in keeping with what we strive for at Academia. Please do speak your Director or HR so that we can understand your needs and work with you to achieve them, both financially and also with your development and workload. We place immense value on meeting individual needs and would welcome the opportunity to work with you on this.

Decent Salary Initial Optimism Project Opportunities Range of Customers

Cons

I started working for Academia's company Vital York, however, I went into hypoglycemic shock which resulted in me being hospitalised. I was told by the head of Academia's HR that I should step down as they would be having a meeting to discuss my dismissal regardless.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate that it was a very difficult time for you personally and recall that the company offered you a substantial amount of support throughout; for which you were very grateful for and voiced this on several occasions. Your review is therefore not easy to read as it does not give a fair reflection of the situation. No-one told you to step down. You were asked what you felt was best for you at the time given everything you were going through and, on several occasions, you were asked how best we could support you. We’re very sorry to hear that you went into hypoglycaemic shock as you didn’t mention that to us at the time. We always do everything we can to support our team and as mentioned, you were grateful for this in the conversations held, given everything that you had going on personally. We do hope that you are doing well and continue to wish you everything of the best.
