Pros

Nice colleagues, they try enforce the whole 'fun place to work' thing which is always better than working.

Cons

You're not being paid enough for the amount of constant issues and tasks you have to do. 5PM on a Friday the guests come in, you've got properties that haven't been cleaned, boiler's not working, people just being difficult that are calling to moan at you. Suppliers and contractors are nowhere to be seen because it's 5PM on a Friday, you're in constant communication with angry guests and you're operating on a tiny workforce because everyone else has finished for the day. Constant calls coming in. Fair enough, the company has a friendly attitude and all of these 'family' activities but at the end of the day, we're at work because we need money to survive and enjoy things with our families. It doesn't equate to the amount of stress you're put under.

A company stuck in the past.

Pros

Leaving. Very hard to think of anything positive.

Cons

Terrible management, inexperienced and zero people skills. A culture of bullying was openly displayed. There's a lot of talk about values but all that is really of value is profit. Salary is very poor with little offer of improvement.

Pros

Reasonable pay and benefits, excellent IT provision.

Cons

Heavily profit focussed above all else, a lot of fuss is made about "people" but the basis are ignored - heavy workloads, expectations of unpaid overtime, shortsighted management decisions all lead to a high stress environment.

We are pleased to hear that you find the pay and benefits to satisfaction. We work to continuously review and improve the ways in which we reward our people at Travel Chapter. I will share your feedback regarding some of the ways in which we can improve. Although we are a growing company and move at speed, we certainly don't want our people to feel stressed.
