Reviews about "staff"
Return to all Reviews- 1.0Mar 4, 2019Policy & InfluencingFormer Contractor, less than 1 yearLondon, England
Pros
The mission is laudable and many employees are passionate about achieving success.
Cons
Sadly, working here was the worst experience of my career. The London office was disjointed, with teams at war with each other. Most staff were struggling with excessively heavy workloads and a culture of working very late and at weekends prevailed. HR processes and systems are very weak. High turnover of staff. A member who had been accused of bullying by several people remained in position with seemingly no repercussions. My advice is to avoid at all costs.
