FNZ Employee Reviews about "work life balance"

Pros

I cannot think of a single pro, I think it would be preferable to smash my face into a window.

Cons

Horrible work-life balance. In the current climate with COVID-19 are letting staff go without no rationale. Aging staff and office outlook. The company expects you to bend over backward in order to accommodate their ignorance and idiocy. Lack of real direction. The company has little to nothing to offer other than a rather lacking salary compared to work output. I would rather contract COVID-19 than work for this company again.

Pros

A truly exciting place to work. FNZ embrace good quality people who want to go somewhere with their career. The diverse opportunities on offer to you, if you want to make a career at FNZ, is a massive positive. I have been supported throughout my career at FNZ in a number of different role from entry level to senior manager level. People are passionate about their work and what they do, which is clearly seen in the number of people that stay at FNZ. The growth rate speaks volumes of well FNZ have done but this is all under pinned by the people that strive to be the best they possibly can be and in turn make FNZ what it is. Work life balance like with any company is what you make of it. There is flexibility when you need it but like anything you get out what you put in. The opportunities on offer to work across the world enables you to experience the world while making a career.

Cons

Like any job, with any company, you can have bad days but the face paced nature of the company means the bad days are quickly a thing of the past.

Pros

Good work life balance because I have taken control of how I work.

Cons

Severely under resourced company which means we cant deliver the work we commit to clients

Pros

Salary is good compared to other similar companies

Cons

Work life balance is non existent No overtime No gratitude Management are not open to change or suggestions Little to no procedures in place

Pros

Some great people, very dedicated and a small group of genuine industry experts. Actual office environment is decent and most folk are very friendly in a "we're all in this together" kind of way. Cereal, tea and coffee on tap which helps.

Cons

Where to start. Firstly be really careful about the glowing reviews - I've not met anybody in my time with FNZ who would right a review like those that appear here. This includes the lifers who've been there since day zero. Even those who stick at it are honest about the troubles FNZ has, I'm afraid too many reviews here smell of desperation and are almost certainly false. This should worry you. The issues are pretty straight forward and unfortunately becoming well known in the client market. Never had a company promised so much and delivered so little. Over commitment on projects and an almost delusional capacity to under resource results in an incredibly challenging delivery environment. Regardless of where you work in FNZ you will spend most days in fire fighting mode. Work / life balance is an enter so struggle. The expectation of some senior management is suited to the sweat shop rather than a modern, functioning business. As a company they've grown so quickly but working practices are incredibly immature. To anyone who is considering a role with FNZ please just take time to read reviews across this site. They sell the dream but the reality is a long way from what is told during recruitment.
