Konrad Group reviews

* No dedicated sick pay policy, it’s just statutory which I’ve never experienced in a UK company. Sick pay either has to be taken as annual leave or unpaid/statatory * Investment priorities feel misaligned. Founders will fund leadership ‘retreats’ while core benefits like sick pay, parental support and compassionate leave are limited/non existent. * When leadership come from head office their approach around socials and drinking feels very 80’s ad agency vibe. I’ve seen other comments on here about it being like a boys club and frat vibes and I agree. * Project allocation is inconsistent, with last-minute changes and limited communication around role fit * Communication in general is poor. We hardly ever know what is going on in the company and things happen very suddenly and without warning. * The office is not collaborative. It’s based in converted apartments in Shoreditch and this means the teams are in separate areas of the ‘office’. * Although the people in the London office are lovely and great to work with, the overarching culture from leadership overseas leans towards corporate America / boys club

The company experiences high turnover rates. Performance reviews lack a structured process, and the benefits offered are below average. Vacation policies are also inadequate, and the work environment can become overwhelming depending on the project. Employees have little to no input regarding the projects they are assigned to. Additionally, there is no opportunity to develop a specific skill set; you might work with Technology A and even earn a certification, only to suddenly find yourself on a project that requires a completely different skill set and tech stack, rendering your previous experience irrelevant.
