Pros

A fair and supportive manager can have a significant positive impact on employee wellbeing and work-life balance. The organisation’s standard full-time working week is 37.5 hours.

Cons

If an employee is unfortunate enough to have an ineffective or problematic manager, Human Resources (now rebranded as “People and Culture”) often appears unwilling to address concerns relating to systemic bullying, manipulation, gaslighting, and workplace harassment. There are concerns that some managers create hostile working environments that pressure employees into resigning, while subsequently recruiting, promoting, and rewarding personal associates. As this organisation operates as a QUANGO, these practices are ultimately funded by taxpayers.
