Pros

Marketing is good, looks interesting

Cons

Toxic culture, lack of support, lack of progression, lack of training, poor management. Whilst the marketing department make it look good from the outside, the reality is very different on the inside. The processes are not at all robust, very little academic rigor, there is no VLE only the use of Teams. Students are definitely not important or consulted when changes are made. Management is apathetic with little recognition of a job well done and equally, people getting away with very poor behaviour. As has been previously mentioned, it's very 'clicky' with certain people being treated as superstars. Read the feedback and the answers promising improvement but nothing changes. I know a number of people who have been bullied out for challenging the poor behaviour of management. So much happier to have moved on to a supportive and exciting workplace.

Pros

value-driven company lovely people bold and interesting

Cons

A lack of clear procedures made the role often confusing and chaotic, with a lack of systems and guidelines to keep work organized and a culture that felt like it often resisted the implementation of processes. This resulted in lots of friction between departments.
