Not good for mental health

Pros

Opportunity to learn and empowered to try out new things. Friendly CEO. Nice office and benefits.

Cons

Don't be fooled by how it looks from the outside. This is about managing their image as a brand rather than being genuinely good. Very cliquey and immature due to the inexperience of the majority of staff. A lot of colleagues will bad mouth others for their own progression.

Pros

Inspiring CEO and CMO, the approach to mental health has improved vastly and the benefits that come with being an employee are great. The facilities are very modern and a good environment and a special shout out to the amazing coaching team working at the gym.

Cons

Management and Heads Of are secretive and cliquey, internal experience counts for nothing as you'll be overlooked for career progressions and internal opportunities

The best place i've ever worked!

Pros

There are so many pros that come to mind but i'll start with the most obvious: - Great benefits/office facility - Genuinely care that people are treated fairly and are happy - Very much an open door culture, feel comfortable to speak to any of the senior leaders/management if i needed too - Senior leaders are very transparent with information that they share, i don't feel like there are 'secret' meetings and 'secret' chats happening between them like i have elsewhere - Really put employee needs above everything else - Feedback culture so you can improve and grow whilst working here, feedback is a two way thing so you can have honest conversations with your management too. this is something which is promoted by CEO - High investment in benefits and development in staff, once again proving that 'profit' and 'money' isn't all they care about - Weekly feedback reports and people team implement changes on behalf of feedback they see, proving again they do care about how people are feeling and how we can do better

Cons

Really can't think of any
