Pros

Most staff at the company are generally welcoming. There is always an event or treat to look forward to and the company even provide volunteer opportunities to help with local charities. The training provided is very thorough and helpful.

Cons

Unfortunately my last few months are Trident were made miserable. A new manager started and she immediately took a disliking to myself. During education and previous jobs I have not once found myself in trouble and employers have been impressed with my enthusiasm and work ethic. However, at Trident I was made to feel like a criminal; accused of things I had not done and when seeking help/advise from other management I was informed that she was simply having 'a bad day'. I feel absolutely disgusted with the way I was treated and spoken to. My motivation for the job completely deteriorated. Even my colleges around me noticed the unfair treatment and clear dislike she displayed towards me. Since she started at Trident I no longer felt like I had an enjoyable job; it made me dread coming into work and due to her status and lack of a HR manager I felt like there was no one I could comfortably talk to. Ultimately this has stained Trident's reputation.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for recognising the positive aspects of your experience at Trident. I am sorry to hear of your experience in your last few months and am concerned that you did not feel there was someone you could comfortably talk to. Our aim is to be a company that our people love to work for. To be that, across our leadership team, we have an open door policy and welcome conversations at any time so I am disappointed that you did not feel you could approach one of us, with your concerns. Your feedback is appreciated and we will do all we can to learn from it, as we continue to invest in our people and our culture, to ensure Trident is a company that people love to work for.
