Pros

Org sounds great "on paper." Noble mission.

Cons

Recruitment excercise carried out at Generation UK can be likened only to a scam. I quit at stage 5 when advised there might be "two more tasks to complete and one more interview" - at which point I already completed two tasks, an online assessment and two interviews. The tasks they throw at people are very involved (the task I completed required creation of a candidate assessment model form scratch, complete data field review, choose candidates for them and document all of this.) You are kindly informed what you submit is for "public consumption" hence the org will have no problem using a candidate's model or its derivative in its business operations going onwards.

Pros

Well paid for a charity Mission looks good on paper

Cons

There’s definitely a mould for successful employees here and if you don’t fit it you won’t fit in Not enough members in the team to do everything, they expect too much from the people they do have leading to burnout Always trying to reinvent the wheel - if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it Spreading people really thin - they started with tech programmes and has started branching out into too many areas with the staff picking up the pieces and getting hammered by senior management if it doesn’t work as planned
