      Lovely blame culture - Anonymous employee telent Employee Review

      Pros

      Friendly and knowledgeable colleagues in all departments. Joe Gretton is a great leader, just not supported well or accurately by some of her underlings who gatekeep / obscure challenging issues with a passion.

      Cons

      Blame culture at middle management level where long-standing persons are too cosy in their jobs to make changes that could require investment, effort or a change in their behaviour. Archaic ways of working and "We've always done it this way" mentality. Challenging the status quo is seen at some levels as a threat rather than an opportunity to improve things. A driven focus on cost savings even when it affects quality of customer service, and then, when it does, the hunt starts for who should take the rap.

      Pros

      Coming into my eighth year at telent, I have thoroughly enjoyed working here and couldn’t praise the company enough, they have supported me from serious family issues and my career has continually progressed, they have helped me develop myself and I am still being encouraged and trained to continue to improve which I feel I am doing, I feel a true loyalty to the company and the team I work within

      Cons

      Sometimes feel like there is a lack of support from various functions as the business is still growing

      Cons

      HR absolutely disgusting. Totally unprofessional. Pay needs to be better. Promised progression needs to be followed through.
