Good product, poor management & toxic environment - Anonymous Employee Moda Living Employee Review

I loved my job a lot at the beginning I really threw myself Into the new building and setting myself up to be a star employee. Helped the team build up the reception team from scratch and love the constant motion of the job.

However it’s started to be evident that there is not structure at all when it comes to opening a new place, you’re kind of thrown in there at the deep end and told to survive, now we did really well with what we had and worked hard but the stress just became too much. Managers would get us to do tasks that were not at all our jobs, meetings with staff members glossed over the real problems that we were having and just told us to stick a word on a post it note about good and bad things like that would sum up something that really needed to be discussed in depth. There is also a real disconnection between sections of the building, the ‘office people’ look down on is constantly which made me feel that we were hated. I.e the office being full of laughter and happy faces until you walked in and it immediately goes silent and they all looked at you like trash. Over time the job wears you down with the constant negativity and no direction.

Friendly team, sensible hours, good MD

Classic case of sometimes having to keep pushing to get sign-off on some projects
