    I have been working at Avetta full-time

    Pros

    Salary has been paid in time

    Cons

    People are treated as numbers and disposed of like used napkins, the targets set belong to a world where glittery unicorns populate the earth, employees' lifes are made miserable by new software that is like the Hydra - one glitch is resolved only for two new ones to arise to replace it. Leadership focuses on petty details instead of addressing the real issues and everyone is expected to be positive despite the fact... that nothing works and nothing is done to make it work. Any constructive criticism from employees is received, only to be thrown in the bin the second you turn your back. But mostly anything you say is ignored.

    I worked at Avetta full-time

    Pros

    Positive and dynamic CEO. Good and interesting client base. Some financial perks.

    Cons

    Too many to mention. Highly ineffective management; when I asked for help I received no support. We were made to write positive glass door reviews - we were NOT given a choice. The only reason I am leaving this negative review is to fairly mitigate against some of these forced positive reviews. If your face fits and you mix in the right circles, you will be fine.

    Advice to Management

    Highly ineffective in many areas but this has been very valuable in helping me strive in my current management position to try and become everything my previous manager wasn't.

    Pros

    No good reasons to work at PICS with current (UK) management
