Pros

There are some brilliant, skilled colleagues who are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Not great decision-making from some of the management. Only cares about pleasing certain clients rather than the environment.

Pros

You learn quickly mainly because you are thrown in at the deep end, with limited planning in place for new or changed roles, without good leadership or management to guide your development and due to the amount of work required to be delivered. There are some lovely hardworking people at the company The mission of the organisation (scope 3 decarbonisation) is a good one, though it is not being realised

Cons

Uncompetitive salary and benefits Abysmal leadership from middle management upwards - full of toxicity, ego and disagreeableness Poor culture and limited trust in leadership decisions Constant redundancies for the past 1.5 years have created a stressful place to work. Many redundancies handled very poorly which has led to much resentment and anger within the staff that remain Leadership lasered focused on profit above all else Company undergoing huge internal change as it shifts to a new business model Many decisions made internally are not communicated properly or at all despite this being fedback time and time again HR only purpose seems to be making people redundant and replying defensively to people on Glassdoor D&I non existent and people's concerns about this are not taken seriously I would not recommend working here - people are extremely unhappy, stressed and looking to leave because there is no faith in the business direction or the leadership - highly likely the business will fail

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your experience was not a positive one. It’s true that our organisation has undergone a significant period of change, as is normal in a growing company. No decision is ever taken lightly and each one is made with the long-term sustainability of the business and our employees in mind. We recognise the impact change can have on individuals and teams and we remain committed to supporting our people through these transitions with care and transparency. We know that change can be difficult, it’s not always immediately easy to see the full picture when you’re in the middle of it. At the same time, we want to acknowledge and highlight the significant progress that has been made, much of it led by our People & Culture team in close collaboration with others: • A new Learning Management System to support professional development and training. • A course library with general and specific courses such as bespoke EDI (Equity, Diversity & Inclusion). • A performance review process and system to encourage regular feedback and clearer progression pathways. • A full review and benchmarking of benefits, with enhancements already implemented in key areas. • Active work on company culture, with encouraging feedback from many current team members. The People & Culture team plays a critical role in helping the business and our people navigate change. Our intent is always to respond to feedback with fact and fairness, and we are proud of the progress made, even while acknowledging there is always more to do. We’re sorry you didn’t feel this progress during your time with us and we wish you all the best in your future endeavours.
