Pros

Lovely people who give great support. Fun and creative, your job gets to go above and beyond the strict barriers of the official role.

Cons

Very low pay - minimum wage when you start from entry level and are kept on this for a VERY long time. The bonus' are non existent. They don't promote you on your job performance, more on the time you are there. You can get no negative criticism in your reviews - it makes no difference. You only get promoted after 1.5-2years of being there. Certain departments are much more highly favored, and this is where they place all of the employees/money/focus. If you're not in one of those departments, don't expect any focus or help from upper management. You are expected to work long hours and not take lunches, it is looked down on if you don't do these things.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave some feedback. We are happy that you enjoyed working with your team and the fun and creative environment. We pride ourselves on our internal progression so it is sad to hear that you didn’t feel that you could progress as we very much consider individual contribution rather than length of service. At our Support Office we pay well above the national minimum wage currently at £8.21 per hour. If there is anything further you would like to discuss, then please do free to get in touch with the people team.
