Bitterly disappointing

Pros

Kitchen is well stocked Some colleagues became good friends

Cons

Day one, no introduction to others other than the staff sat directly next to me and unable to login to the computers. It was also a while before I could access the areas I needed to do my job properly. Over time I saw the exact same issue with a number of new employees. The training was poor and unstructured. The high staff turnover made the workplace a depressing environment to work in. Staff were cut just like that, no comment made. Staff were very aware of the high turnover. HR hugely exaggerated the opportunity and training, I turned down two higher paid roles thinking this would be a better fit.

Very hierarchal company

Pros

The culture of Audible is really great. I think if the culture was not that good, no one would stay actually.

Cons

Unbelievable layers across most functions, it is crazy given their number of employees. Systems are hardly integrated together, automation for HR processes is a must

Pros

The talented pool of people that unfortunately has no where to grow further

Cons

Unnecessary politics, lack of leaders, micro managers, no career growth and incredibly toxic work culture. I would not recommend working at this place at all.
