Pros

Having their name on your CV is the only good thing that came out of it.

Cons

Firstly, the way the owner and managers treat their staff is completely appalling. The owner would tear your work up and make you feel so terrible (girls would often cry after meetings with her). The management in the design team is also terrible and they do not manage you at all and give you any help. I can’t believe they are allowed to behave like this, it gave me terrible anxiety the whole time I was there.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am sorry however to hear that you have so much negative feedback. Please feel free to call the HR department at any time via the head office switchboard so we can address your concerns.

Pros

Onsite cafe with food and coffee at reasonable prices. Hybrid working model.

Cons

Poor communication from upper level management with no clear strategy for growth. The future always felt quite unstable because of archaic and old school mentality. Varying levels of friendliness across departments which made collaborative work to achieve business goals difficult.
