Feels like it's becoming a cult

Pros

great immediate team, lots of chances to upskill and develop personally. (though not into a role where you are paid for it) lovely campus

Cons

Senior management culture that consolidates all power and decision making in their hands and treats those at lower grades than them with contempt. Those who are the chosen few can progress but everybody else is bulled into silence or until they quit. Last minute chaotic decision making based on flimsy evidence. Always seem to try and push staff goodwill to see what they can get away with. Feels like it's becoming a cult around the ideological instincts of the vice chancellor and if you don't buy into his vision they don't want you here.

Pros

A beautiful campus, that's it

Cons

Just about everything else. Roehampton has a toxic culture that starts with the senior management. Just about everything that they do is wrong. Serious bullying and lack of respect for all staff. A self-serving elite run this place. It is pure evil. Just resist even being tempted to go there - unless you're looking for a generous pay-out for being bullied - lots of those.
