Pros
Great support network, from peers to line managers to mentorship schemes. On- site facilities are great, subsidised canteen and coffee bars. Great internal training and focus on feedback and progression. Clear efforts are made to ensure employees feel well looked after - from the buildings facilities through to Employee Assistance Programmes and Wellbeing groups.
Cons
The scheme is structured brilliantly, at present there are no cons I would mention - 6 months into my career I feel settled within MHR. With current circumstances (social distancing, remote working) I feel that MHR have sustained the same level of support for their employees.

Worst employer out there. If you care about your mental health, avoid MHR at all costs.

Good canteen. Good parking. Ruddington is nice.
Cons
Horrible management, no overtime, a lot of pressure and threats about you losing your job on a monthly basis. They don't care about their employees as they advertise. In fact, if you reed any of their brochures, they do exactly the opposite of what they advice in terms of HR management! I have seen too many talented employees get fired for minor reasons, I have witnessed people getting shouted at and also embarrassed in front of other colleagues. Some even have cried and had to walk out the office.

Pros
* Good hiring process means that your peers will be smart, friendly, hard-working people * You'll work with talented developers on an interesting app with clean and tidy code * A fairly successful implementation of Agile and good oversight keeps work moving * Comfortable modern office with great food from on-site cafeteria
Cons
* Upper levels of the company are money-driven and not interested in advice or suggestions from below * Management attempts to enforce outdated culture (dress requirements, rules on hair colour, tattoos, etc. even for employees who never meet customers) * Management obsession with metrics and KPIs leads to micromanagement and gaming the system to keep numbers in the green regardless of the actual state of work * Culture leads to great pressure to toe the line and work harder, not smarter, focusing on fixing symptoms while moaning that things never improve because the causes are not addressed

Pros
Chairman was very supportive and motivating.
Cons
Transactional products overpriced and not in line with main Competitors. Payroll support was withdrawn with no replacement. Service Management did everything possible to stop me getting deals over the line, influenced by HR.

Pros
I started at MHR in the middle of the pandemic which could have been a problem, however, the onboarding process was great. I felt like part of the team straight away and got to meet everyone virtually. The positives of working in the MHR marketing team are that everyone is very welcoming and there is a great opportunity to work with lots of different people. It's a very positive and fun environment where hard work is rewarded and recognised by your colleagues and managers. The team always encourages new out-of-the-box marketing ideas and will support you in any way necessary.
Cons
I have been at MHR for 4 months and so far haven't encountered any negatives to my job role.

Pros
Everyone is hugely helpful and welcoming. I have been given autonomy and trust straight away. My ideas from previous experience are welcomed and encouraged. I felt part of a great team right from day 1. The recruitment and interview process was seamless, personable and efficient. The team were in touch when they said they would be, if not beforehand. My first couple of weeks have been well structured and I have felt supported throughout. The offices provide a great working environment with a mix of the traditional and modern. MHR provide a subsidised staff restaurant which serves great breakfast and lunch options in lovely surroundings. I am excited to learn more about my role and MHR. I believe this has been a great career choice for me.
Cons
The benefits on offer are basic but this would not outweigh the pros.

None that I can think of.
