Immedis Reviews

Pros

Fast growing company with great people, ideal for accelerating your career

Cons

High Growth can be challenging at times

Pros

None that I can think of. If you take a position ensure that your on boarding as an employee is undertaken. I started the same day as a peer who got 30 days of on boarding through the academy which is great. However, I was given none, despite it being clear via my resume and interviews that I had no Customer Onboarding Experience nor payroll experience. This advantage that a peer had over me was clear. Instead, I was expected to be a know all from day one with a very difficult customer and a manager spread to thin, whilst trying her hardest to keep me afloat. I felt like quitting after the first week! Eventually I got reprieve and moved on to another customer after spending the time necessary in the Academy. I learned and I excelled with a new customer! Everything was going swell. Until... I was told that the "Board" had decided to axe me.

Cons

An insecure company, management not experienced and pass the buck for their own inadequacies,not enough qualified resources (due to not onboarding employees correctly, it would be much easier otherwise) Expect long hours and then a stab in the back.

Pros

Good place to build contacts as they are largely moving elsewhere.

Cons

In the later part of 2020, as a direct result of what I imagine is confidential information, a group of recent hires at Immedis were let go despite being consistently performing above expectations. Many of these people hadn't yet passed probation. At a mandatory all-hands meeting, during which a senior board member announced they were leaving via company-wide email, this was attributed to "right-sizing". It was also announced that these changes had been in the works for many months, longer than the entire tenure of those who'd been let go. Many of those not being let go complained in the chat channel that there was mass burnout in the operations departments, across the company a number of those who avoided "right-sizing" are leaving of their own accord, and requested more oversight. Happily during this tumultuous time they appear to have managed to maintain their sponsorship of a golfer. Companies often reply to negative reviews on here to characterise them as an individual with an axe to grind. I leave this up to you. Even if they do have a brief hiring freeze, Immedis' disposable attitude to new hires and their unreasonable workload expectation of their current employees is worth considering if you're going to spend time and effort in this company. Though there are good people here, this is despite the "hypergrowth"-focused strategy, outlined by the CEO in the meeting mentioned above, not because of it.

Pros

I love working in Immedis as it means I get to work with some of the most amazing people I've come across in my career. The leadership team is open to ideas, and as a business, I feel we are doing something really special. It's hard but it's worth it.

Cons

There is a lot of change. It's a high-paced environment, but everyone is there to support you and to help when needed.

Pros

There were very few pros

Cons

Under staffed and management only cared about a touch less payroll regardless of whether it was right or wrong! Benefits were none existant!

Pros

Very good people Salary and Benefits

Cons

Too many to mention but here is a few: High turnover on the Leadership team. This has lead to a negative impression in the market about the stability of the business. Unstable software has resulted in poor customer experience For a payroll company, The lack of input on the softwares UI from qualified payroll professionals is alarming. All of the above has lead to a huge walkout of staff over the last year and nobody seems to care There is a lot of rumors abound about the companies future and it made me very uneasy

Pros

I can't think of pros right now as there is so much wrong. I'll try to come up with one or two as I continue this review.

Cons

Used to be a good experience working here, at least initially but now going to hell in a handcart The new executive team are as bad if not slightly worse than the people they replaced - Some are out and out bullies that vary between passive aggressiveness and outright disrespect with poor or non-existent people leadership skills - Wide scale burnout experienced in various teams. - Unlike times gone by, people have gone very very quiet in meetings - Its so obvious and I think the reasons are clear - Some nice colleagues but others are now happy to go missing when you need their help with one or two I know happy to throw you under the bus probably following the line that leadership do as they gain more experience - some are just too busy to help - Asking employees not to let fellow staff or clients know they are leaving the company says it all It has turned from a motivating place to work to a very demotivating place to work, lots of chaos, pure structure, lots of lip service to core values. Respect is emphasised to you when you join but some in leadership/mgmt don't show it and haven't a clue about relating positively to people - They are great at pontificating but are not real leaders. Lots of spin and little substance - You are promised that things will get easier and certain things are in place (which are an outright lie). You are promised that things will change but they never do and in many roles, you'll probably feel miserable after a few weeks if not months. No matter what you do or how hard you work, it seems that it will always be the same. The initial training is good and better than I experienced in my last company but some mgrs/leads have no experience of their role and are next to useless when it comes to helping out which leads to a difficult start in your role. There is supposed to be a new mgmt framework structure that has never been rolled out to date and promised ages ago but I doubt much will change. Old habits die very hard among people with influence that have been in the company for a while. My advice to anyone who is joining - I'd think again. If you like chaos and can live with a target on your back when it happens (which I'm sure it will for many as its very hard to keep up), by all means join for the challenge. It will be hard to last very long before getting discouraged unless you are very lucky. With the way employees have been treated , never mind some seemingly poor business decisions, the company seems to be struggling and I'm not surprised.

Pros

Superb project team who are very supportive and committed to customers. For employees that can give everything & do so consistently - this is a company you will do well in.

Cons

Weak executive team. Wide scale burnout experienced in multiple implementation project teams. Systematic process (late last year) of pushing employees out who were not able to keep up with the ever increasing frantic pace. Policy of cutting off employees network access on last working day without warning. Asking employees not to let fellow staff or clients know they are leaving the company.

Pros

Lot of opportunities, lot of great deals closed, the company has the right attitude

Cons

Too many changes in senior management. The lack of stability at the top drives employees nuts.

Pros

Loads of high caliber people across the business who care Enviable global customer base including lots of blue chip and well known tech names Disruptable industry not served well by global trends

Cons

Company has scaled too fast without the strategy to go with it There is burnout amongst key teams Leadership change which is not uncommon after a few years of hypergrowth Right sizing in 2021 handled poorly and hit wrong areas
