Pros
When I first joined, the company was small, supportive, and had a genuine family feel. Leadership took the time to look after their staff, valued hard work, and showed their appreciation through regular fun socials and team activities. It felt like a place where everyone’s contribution mattered, and there was a real sense of camaraderie.
Cons
Covid was the turning point for this company. What was once a fun and supportive culture shifted into one driven by greed and ignorance. The managing directors have become completely out of touch with the reality of day-to-day work, and staff are neither respected nor supported.
There is no concern for employee wellbeing — long hours, weekend work, and insufficient lunch breaks are the norm, and despite considerable growth, there is still no HR function in place. I have never felt so unhappy and unmotivated in a role, and leaving was the best decision I could have made.
High staff turnover is a major issue, with people regularly dismissed without fair cause or any form of employee support plan. I would strongly advise others to avoid this company if they value being treated fairly and with respect.
