Pros

Pleasant atmosphere Dynamic environment and you get to meet new people everyday Training is provided to help develop skill set

Cons

Very bureaucratic management. It's hard to work freely and confidently when every little move is scrutinised. As employees on the front line, we know what works and what doesn't and you feel that your contributions are brushed aside. Basic pay rate after years of service.

Pros

Flexible work - errr I can’t think of anything else.

Cons

They don’t pay your invoices. • Freelance assessors are expected to complete work in good faith but payments are frequently delayed. • Outstanding invoices can remain unpaid for weeks or months, creating significant financial uncertainty for freelancers. • The Head of Department openly acknowledged that payment problems have happened before and can take months to resolve • Freelancers appear to be treated as an afterthought. When payments are missed, communication from senior leadership is either extremely limited or non-existent, leaving assessors chasing answers and feeling undervalued.

Pros

Flexible work which I thought would be great to top up my income.

Cons

Constant issues paying on time I'm currently owed £1200 for work I completed 2 months ago - Senior leaders ignore all emails from associates regarding payment - makes you feel undervalued and that the Directors are too important to ensure freelance staff are paid.
