Changing and not in a positive way - Anonymous employee Swim England Employee Review

Great place to work at

none that I could tell

There are definitely some positives. The flexibility to work from home two days a week is appreciated, and most salaries sit around the market median, which feels fair. Day to day, most colleagues are friendly and supportive, it’s easy to get along with people and build good working relationships within teams. The office is nice and modern and you are provided with decent equipment.

That said, the company’s approach to flexibility has shifted in a way that’s frustrated a lot of staff. More people are being brought back into the office under the banner of “collaboration,” but it often feels more like micromanagement than genuine teamwork. Full-time home working contracts are only available if at least half of your weekly work is field-based, which has really limited the organisation’s ability to attract or retain talented people who live further afield from Loughborough.
