Nice people - Senior Producer Portable Employee Review

Accept the variety of people

May have some differences in salary

The work Portable does is truly great - their projects truly do help people in need. And the employees are amazing; I made many great friends working there.

Unfortunately, the business is unbelievably mismanaged. There is no positive culture fostered by management, projects always run over budget and people end up resourced in completely unsustainable ways, and it is generally a miserable place to work. Management have never listened to anyone when they say there are major problems, and they still pretend everyone is happy and there is no culture problem when there clearly is. Remuneration is also very poor, at 20-30% below market rates. There are some perks and non financial benefits, but they definitely in no way make up for the massive pay discrepancy. If you work at Portable you can expect to make a real difference through the work you get to do, but at the expense of your own mental health, stress levels, and very low salaries. It's not worth it.
