Pros

Pay is good. Interesting problems to work on. Nice people.

Cons

Lots of red tape and entrenched views. Some people have been at Virgin for decades and are resistant to changing anything.

We’re chuffed to hear you’re enjoying the work, the people, and that the pay hits the mark. It means a lot to know you’re finding interesting challenges to get stuck into. Thanks for your feedback around red tape – it’s not something we expect to see. We’re a small and innovative team, and we pride ourselves on being bold, courageous and open to fresh thinking. We want everyone to feel they can help shape change and be part of what’s next. If there’s more you’d like to share, we’re all ears – just drop us a line at people.team@virgin.com. – The Virgin People Team

We love a bit of feedback – but this one doesn’t quite look like it’s for us. If you meant to review another Virgin company (or a totally different one!), no worries – easy mistake to make. We’ll leave this here just in case!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feedback. We’re really sorry to hear you left feeling overworked and frustrated with leadership. That’s not the experience we want anyone to have, and your feedback really matters. We pride ourselves on creating a genuine sense of belonging — where everyone feels their time and energy are valued, and where they can make a real impact, not just clock long hours. We're investing in some brilliant, purpose-led leadership programmes to help our leaders lead with clarity, confidence and care. And it’s great to hear you enjoyed our perks — we’re proud of what comes with being part of the Virgin family. We especially love welcoming our New York colleagues to the UK and seeing that global connection come to life. If there’s more you’d like to share, we’d love to hear it – feel free to get in touch at people.team@virgin.com. – The Virgin People Team
