Pros
Some colleagues are supportive and friendly. Certain teams work well together despite management issues. The roles provide basic experience for the sector. Access to certain benefits.
Cons
No safeguarding in place, abusive behaviours are often ignored until formally reported. Upper management overlooks serious issues instead of being proactive. Managers are hired without proper checks into job history or performance. Hiring process is not impartial, decisions are made solely by managers. There is no independent recruitment team. No developmental or career opportunities unless you are in a back pocket. Personal and medical information shared across teams without consent, consistent GDPR breaches and submissions of such to the ICO. Lack of accountability or genuine apologies when breaches or mistreatment occurs. Dismissive and demeaning treatment of bottom level staff. Toxic culture is promoted and enabled, rather than resolved.
