Pros
Pay was acceptable for some roles and the business could provide varied experience due to moving staff across departments. Some nice people.
Cons
A deeply unhealthy workplace culture where inappropriate behaviour was too often tolerated and concerns did not appear to be taken seriously. Professional boundaries felt inconsistent, and conduct that would be unacceptable in many modern organisations could be brushed aside or normalised. Management standards felt weak and inconsistent. Favouritism appeared to matter more than competence, with some individuals protected while others were criticised or overlooked. Accountability did not seem to apply equally. There was little sense of fair progression, with roles and opportunities appearing to be handed out informally rather than through transparent internal processes. Hard work and capability did not always feel recognised. The environment could feel cliquey, exclusionary and at times demeaning, particularly if you did not fit the preferred social dynamic. Raising genuine concerns risked being labelled oversensitive rather than being supported. Overall, this was not a workplace that inspired trust, respect or confidence in leadership.
