Pros

While working at CTO Labs, I observed that they took the time to celebrate successes. However, it's important to note that my overall experience had its challenges, and I believe there is room for improvement in managers providing support to their teams. This could contribute to a more effective and positive work environment.

Cons

1- Management and Client Relations: The company faced difficulties in maintaining positive client relationships, leading to unfortunate layoffs. Strengthening the management's approach to client interaction could enhance the overall stability of the organization. 2- Lack of Support: Despite consistently receiving positive feedback for my contributions throughout my tenure, there was a notable lack of support when issues arose with clients. The sudden layoff without prior communication left me confused. During the layoff process, the management's behavior abruptly shifted from positive feedback to blame. Access to my computer was promptly restricted. A more communicative and supportive approach during challenging times would greatly benefit employees and the overall work environment. I encountered a significant personal challenge when I was let go during my pregnancy. This situation was disheartening and impacted my perception of the company's commitment to employee well-being. 3- Toxic Work Environment: The company culture inadvertently fostered a gossip-driven and toxic work environment. I think this issue should be addressed to improve the overall workplace atmosphere.

Dear Former Employee Thank you for taking the time to share feedback about your time at CTO Labs. We value input from all team members, both past and present, as it helps us understand the experience of the team and identify any areas for improvement. We're sorry to hear that your experience didn't meet your expectations. Our goal is to create a positive, supportive workplace with opportunities for professional growth. While we're glad you noticed our efforts to celebrate successes within the team, your feedback regarding client relationship management and company culture is concerning to read because valuing the customer and team collaboration are two of our core values. Restructuring is sometimes necessary in our industry due to changing client needs, but we strive to handle these situations sensitively and with care. While it is our hope that every team member finds a professionally rewarding and lasting place at CTO Labs, we recognise that unfortunately this is not always the case. However your feedback will be shared with the Leadership Team as part of our focus on continuous improvement. We wish you the very best in your future endeavours and thank you for your contributions during your time with CTO Labs. Kind Regards Jane Evans Head of Marketing & Communications
