Pros

Great, friendly team. Beautiful building. The work I did made me feel like I'd made a good contribution towards the Academy. Disability friendly. Hybrid and flexible working. I wanted to give 3.5 stars but it doesn't have that option!

Cons

Directorates are a bit isolated so it was hard to get to know anybody outside of Comms. Teams were a bit cliquey. Communication from managers was poor.

Pros

- Really Nice venue that was always clean - Friendly people, seems like moral was high - great training opportunities - Free snacks and really nice coffee making machine

Cons

- Felt like my role was restrictive, didn't like clocking in and out and having my rota managed (this was just my department) - Salary isn't great, it's better for entry level staff, it was ok for a the short run. - Quite a loud office and distractive atmosphere, sometime management didn't seem professional with their comments, and some micromanaging happened.
