Pros

For me, effective culture is essential to the success and organisational alignment of colleagues to the vision and strategy of any business, and it is a significant factor in my choice of employer. I joined Core in 2021 and from the moment of application, through my onboarding and into my day-to-day work, I have felt connected to Core and know that I am an important part of the team. I understand the value of my contribution and receive ongoing recognition for my work. This recognition is an ingrained routine at Core; we celebrate our teamwork, our efforts, our accomplishments and our hard work. I especially enjoy the company-wide Friday shoutout calls we have, which celebrate colleague contribution, no matter how small. Part of the caring culture is a strong work-life-balance. This is evident in the stellar work of our social committee, who organise fantastic events for us all to take part in. Saying all that, I think the most significant thing that impresses me, however, is that everything I’ve said above is clearly so important and driven down from the leadership team. In my experience, culture is often created in pockets within an organisation; self-curated within individual teams. At Core, I truly feel the culture and care from the very top. I know that the company wants to take care of me. I know that it is not bluster. That is a very unique feeling, and I cannot advocate strongly enough for Core. I am proud to be an ambassador for our company.

Cons

At the minute, I have nothing negative to say!

Pros

Working at Core is a wonderful experience for me. I feel motivated to give my best every day, knowing that my contributions are valued and appreciated. Even though we don’t share a physical office, we have a strong sense of camaraderie and collaboration. We also have fun together at the frequent social events that the company organises and sponsors. I can tell that the management team genuinely cares about our well-being and happiness. They provide us with flexible work arrangements, generous benefits, and opportunities for growth and development. I’m proud to be part of Core, especially after we won the prestigious CRN Award for Best Company to Work For in Summer 2023. This award recognises our excellence in culture, innovation, and customer service. Core is not just a great place to work, it’s a great place to belong.

Cons

Very occasionally, I feel a bit isolated and lonely when I work remotely for most of my working week. I miss the face-to-face interactions and the social aspects of working in an office. It would be nice to have more opportunities to meet and mingle with my colleagues in person. However, most of the time, I enjoy the benefits and advantages of working from home. I save time and money on commuting, I have more flexibility and autonomy over my schedule, and I can balance my work and personal life better. For me, working remotely is a great option.😊

Pros

- Great team to work with. - A lot of people have been working for Core for a very long time so there is plenty of knowledge and history here. - An exciting time for the company as currently there is investment in growth and looking for acquisition targets. - Flexible working was promoted even before 2020 so the company was well prepared. Performance always has been judged on output rather than attendance. - Share options help to engage and excite staff for the journey. - Since my arrival, there has been a focus on improving systems & processes and lots of progress has been made - we are now well placed for growth.

Cons

- Systems changes recently mean some hard work to overcome teething challenges. - 2020 has posed challenges with lockdown and some difficult projects.

Pros

One of the biggest advantages is the fully remote and flexible working arrangements, along with an absolutely fantastic team. People really do make a great atmosphere

Cons

As the company is small/medium there aren't too many options for career progression (if we understand this up climbing up the company ladder)

Pros

Great group of people who are friendly, professional and actually care about what we do and living the company values. Lovely culture - family like atmosphere, regular social events and everyone is willing to help one another across departments. Approachable senior management. Employee wellbeing is a priority and has been especially during lockdown. Employee feedback collected regularly by HR and senior management so employee opinions can be heard. Good offices in a central location.

Cons

The team is extremely busy so sometimes resources are stretched - but only because business is thriving!

Pros

Since joining Core, everyone has been very welcoming and friendly and I have experienced excellent engagement. In my first month, we had a virtual quiz, murder mystery night and team drinks together. As a remote worker, I found this to be a very valuable and a fun way to get to know my colleagues better. The leadership team has been very open and welcoming of new ideas and provided great support. I am excited about the future with Core and the wonderful people I am working with who deliver great value for our customers and are enjoyable to work with. We have a great office space in London and even as a remote worker, there is opportunity to collaborate in shared workspaces as and when we need to.

Cons

Covid is the only negative at the moment! Looking forward to being able to see more of my new colleagues soon and have some f2f events with our colleagues, partners and customers
