Pros

Flexible start and finish 9 day fortnight - but in honesty we work 9-6 daily and so this only really offsets the longer work days. Parental leave is 70% for 6 months. Medical insurance.

Cons

Culture has disappeared and there is no longer innovation and progressive thinking. Leadership is top heavy, disorganised and lacking vision. There have been cases of sexual harassment and misconduct as well as several maternity discrimination situations - especially during the last round of redundancies. There has become a "boys club" culture and no space for diversity of thought. Presenteeism. Inconsistent treatment (e.g. who can and can't be remote, how performance is measured and managed). Senior Leaders are not held accountable for switching priorities, cancelling projects and making poor decisions. Roles are not advertised openly and fairly.

Pros

Great and hardworking team 9 day fortnight remote working with flexible hours

Cons

- performance is extremely measured and even if you're hitting your targets it's never good enough, "you need to push for more" (but 100% percent is literally not possible in CX) - no progression or promotion in the role possible, they justify this by silly reasons (e.g. point above) - high staff turnover in CX - you're just a number and can't show any individuality in your customer emails - they constantly give you feedback (criticism) and encourage you to give feedback (but only want to hear positive feedback or they twist your words in your mouth and make you feel bad about saying it in the first place)

Pros

9 day fortnight makes work life balance a lot easier. Lots of great dogs and great people. Good office location.

Cons

Not as many socials as there used to be so I think team spirit is down a bit.
