No Flexibility

Pros

Some of the people are great!

Cons

JCB feels stuck in the past, with an old-fashioned way of working that doesn’t support modern employees. Cutting flexi holidays from 10 to 5 days shows that the company is moving away from caring about work-life balance. It seems like these changes are meant to push people to leave. Bullying is common across different BUs and is often ignored, creating a toxic and stressful environment. Many arrogant managers act above others and are not willing to help, making it hard for teams to feel supported. Overall, employees are not treated as people, but just as numbers. This kind of culture is damaging morale and driving good people away.
