Pros

I really enjoyed working at BEIS. The staff are really friendly and the team I worked in was really warm and friendly. My manager was really good and made me feel welcome. I joined BEIS from the Ex DECC side as was the only person in my team from that side of the organisation. The rest of my team were recruited from the Ex BIS side.

Cons

One of the downsides I would say is Salary. Turnover within the organisation is very high and I do not believe anything has yet be done to measure exactly why this is the case.

Pros

Interest portfolio ranging from business regulation to energy, so wide range of potential projects to work on. One of the bigger Government departments, so well-known.

Cons

Lack of clear focus, line managers tend to have poor management skills and there are a lot of people who don't seem to do a lot because poor performers are not managed properly.
