      NONE - PLEASE RUN !!!!!

      Inconvénients

      This company is a joke. Hands down the worst culture I’ve ever experienced. I dealt with straight up racism in my team, and of course, the People team talks a big game about inclusion and mental health, but they’re not there for you they’re there to protect the company. They don’t care. At all. Not about you, not about your wellbeing, not about what’s actually happening inside the teams. I brought up issues, real serious ones, and was met with blank stares and fake concern. Nothing changed. I ended up with clinical anxiety and had breakdowns just thinking about going to work. My manager was useless and cold. Zero support, zero empathy. You work hard? Doesn’t matter. You do everything right? Doesn’t matter. You will never be appreciated. The culture is pure toxicity cliques, gossip, backstabbing, and a disgusting hierarchy where the worst people thrive. The People team acts like they care in public, but behind the scenes they’re just damage control. Everything is about image. They will ignore or silence you if it threatens their brand. This job broke me. I’ve never felt more isolated, more unsupported, or more dehumanized in a workplace. Nothing good came out of this experience except the fact that I eventually left. If you're considering working here: don't.

      Hours can be long, however it always feels like this is rewarded.

      Avantages

      - Similar-minded colleagues make an enjoyable work environment. - Flexible working schedule is useful. - Managers offer freedom to develop, and work autonomously. - Good progression opportunities (only if you're lucky).

      Inconvénients

      - The workload is AWFUL. You see it mentioned on almost every review on here, spanning years back, and they provide the same response about how they're working on it or actively looking at it. I can assure you that is a complete and utter lie. They do absolutely nothing to try and make workloads manageable, as they are constantly trying to cut costs, streamline teams, and most recently force redundancies and pay freezes. They may act performative on LinkedIn professing how much they care about your wellbeing, but they most definitely do not take any steps to make the job manageable within the time you have, and therefore everybody is stressed out and overworked. (I am sure they will provide the same banal AI-generated response here about how they're committed to making workloads more manageable, or something along those lines. Don't believe them.) - Base salaries are not competitive (partly why there's such high turnover). £33k for a Senior Executive role in London is terrible. You will also struggle to progress from there in most teams. - Disorganisation. Processes are convoluted, tedious, and waste lots of time. Too much admin & trivial nonsense is a large reason why the workload is too high (they have no idea how to solve this by the way).
