Pros

Work can be interesting and varied. Renumeration is good IF you remain on a client for the year Social events and company meetings are good with little expense spared. Employees are trusted to deliver roles for clients as they see fit - you have a lot of autonomy.

Cons

Renumeration is poor if you have two or months unchargeable to clients - often through no fault of yours. This creates a culture where people take little time off just in case they are not chargeable later in the year. Expenses are much tighter than they were - you feel less trusted as an employee although actual expenses incurred similar. Little to no ongoing training - you are expected to be the "finished article" No opportunity to be a part owner of the company.

Project One (UK) Response
6y
As a result of an anonymous Great Place to work survey, we have identified our team would like more opportunity to develop. Although we employ the most senior people to lead the complex work we do, our focus for 2020 will incorporate development for individuals. As we mature, we want people to know there is opportunity for anyone to become an owner of the business and hope this is a motivator for the whole team.

Pros

Good benefits package. Nice office.

Cons

I was employed as a HR Advisor at Project One in the Holmes Chapel office working directly for the people Director. I had a horrendous experience whilst there which ultimately I had to resign with immediate effect after 4 months due to my manager using bullying tactics which effectively impacted my health. These included being made to feel incompetent in my role by being ridiculed in meetings, being set to fail by giving me targets that I was unable to achieve as I wasn’t able to complete them whilst I was off being part time, given no KPI’s or guidance on my role. My line manager claimed every task was urgent and clearly didn’t like me for whatever reason.

Pros

The company offers a competitive compensation and benefits package and organises staff events and appreciation gifts. It also supports charitable initiatives.

Cons

The workplace culture lacks collaboration and is frequently affected by unprofessional behaviour and bullying, Poor interpersonal dynamics and the absence of psychological safety contribute to a toxic and demotivating environment. There is a lack of investment in employee development, with minimal training and learning opportunities to support professional growth.
