          Business Outlook

          Pros

          It used to be a great company to work for until the current COO came into their role. Now, the staff are made to work long hours, there is little to no support from line management and staff are burnt out.

          Cons

          There is a bullying culture amongst the certain teams such as the bespoke content team, which makes for an unpleasant working environment. Unfortunately the COO and management team has not put effective methods in place to address this, which is extremely disappointing.

                    Pros

                    - very supporting environment - good base salary - always looking to the future and never stands still - feedback is being listened to very closely - fun and frequent incentives - total flexibility post-training period

                    Cons

                    - Frequent change is good but it's difficult to get used to. Sometimes things change so often you can't keep up. - Earning value isn't what it used to be (officialy out of the start up phase + bigger team+ economic climate - this could change in the future) - Communication/Messaging between senior/junior management and wider team can sometimes be messy - Diversity and Inclusion not there quite yet (but actively working on improving it)

                      Is there an ‘active job seeker’ icon for recruiters on LinkedIn the way there is an ‘actively recruiting’ icon for job seekers?

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!
