Please believe every negative review on here because it is very true. Be aware they had an incentive for employees to leave 5* reviews on Glassdoor to imporve their scores, as Talent team were struggling to hire because of it!!! Teya, former Saltpay, is not a company, they are a mix of 10-15 different companies for licenses, software etc . its a caca show! As a financial company , they failed to terminate me and take me off payroll, resulting in me getting paid for 6 months after I resigned, although I contacted them after the 1st wrong salary. The excuse was our payroll system was not working ?!! This resulted in me showing earnings of over 100k with HMRC and was charged taxes accordingly! Although I sent back every single wrong salary I received! The communication from their side was close non-existing for months until I have emailed every single employee I could think of in the company asking for anyone to reply. The company claims to be multicultural - they speak Portuguese as a majority, during team meetings, although not everyone is Portuguese/Brazilian. if you don't speak the language , they tell you you should learn it. The feeling in the company / team feels like an American high school where people managers whispers with other (favorite) team members and laugh - think Mean Girls , super immature, but then people managers are like 20 years old , managing people with as much work experience as they have of life. People managers are with ZERO people management experience - and no training is provided - they assign a manager and let them free style. My manager was unaware of what "meeting minutes" were, there was also a massive language barrier, let alone understand the UK best practice when it comes to meetings, probation meetings etc. Micromanagement is often seen - and this is because of lack of experience and self confidence in managers, also a lot of pressure from CEO, founders etc The mentality is: we ONLY focus on the things going wrong. Massive blame culture, to the point that the founder calls you bad words during meetings. Aggressive and unprofessional. The communication is all over the place, with no clear policies. Meaning you speak with 10 different people getting 12 different answers :)) The head of culture refers to employees, during global meetings with the F word. one of their values is: say it as it is: and some take advantage of this and behave like *C word* They advertise remote working - but they have a "you need to come to the office so the BIG BOSS can see you " mentality - also they expect you to work more than 40h per week - not paid - and they see it as a bad thing if you leave the office early. I often found myself 5 days in the office before 8 am in and after 8 pm out - again - remote working was advertised ! This was the most chaotic workplace I have experienced in my 20 years of working experience, and I sold potatoes by the highway, at age 7. They hire fresh graduates in positions like HR - when reality hits them they are incapable to deal with the situations. 1 because its easier to manipulate and they don't have previous experience to compare it to so they take Teya as wow - soon they realize its a caca show. hence hundreds have left !! the attrition rate is disgusting. They fire people like its nothing. Do yourself a favor and stay away from Teya / Saltpay or whatever else they plan to call themselves in the future
