Good digital product push, OK workload, low morale company culture, lack of career progression opportunity

Anonymous Employee (Former Employee)
London, England

I worked at Telegraph Media Group full-time for more than a year

Pros- Good push for digital product development
- Some nice and dynamic people to work with
- Nice environment
- Liberal work attire
- Nice Christmas parties

Cons- Lack of career progression or staff skillset development
- Unstructured teams and processes
- Lack of business transparency
- Too much departmental and individual politics, therefore don't tend to work as a team and help each other
- Low morale company culture
- Low salary that are below market average (except for some Sales persons)
- Incompetent individuals
- High staff turnover

Advice to Senior ManagementPeople make the company - don't focus too much on annual revenue targets - pay attention to technology and and recognise resource needs to make the business grow and in turn, retain high caliber staff.

I worked at Telegraph Media Group

ProsI worked at the Telegraph online department for a year and a half. It was very interesting and my colleagues were all dynamic individuals. They seemed committed to innovation and providing a top notch product.

ConsSometimes I felt the drive to increase website traffic clouded editorial decisions. Also, during a period of cutbacks I thought management treated the casual workers unfairly (but I may be biased).

Advice to Senior ManagementDon't compromise the caliber of the content of the website in the hunt for extra clicks.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend
