Manager in London, Greater London

Excellent

Amazing benefitsFlexible working Good for working parents easy goingWould say that this company is probably one to come back to later in life- not fast paced, not great pay,

Customer Experience in Brighton

on 5 September 2023

Great company benefits but poor development & direction

Too many changes being made, by senior leaders who are making those decisions for their own career progression, without a reality or insight into the negative impact of their personal projects. Leading to unhappiness and disconnection between colleagues and managers.

Travel Consultant in Remote

on 24 August 2023

An okay place to work, they make it seem like it’s the best company but they give you extra responsibility with no extra pay, so now I have double the work load and get told ‘oh but your benefits are great’ sorry but the ride to work scheme doesn’t pay my rent

Customer Service Advisor in Brighton

on 15 August 2023

Good job. Hours and pay not great.

People are treated very well. Fun place at times, good atmosphere plenty of support in every way. Quite low pay. Bad shift pattern. So overall good for younger candidates but not if you have dependents. Some late finishes. Some opportunities for sideways moves to keep the interest up. Some chance of genuine advancement but most who wish to do better actually decide to leave.

Not any ordinary company but an American company that has a lot of expectations as you would expect but after all it’s a trustworthy company to work for!My lead is very helpful and completely understands my requirements and helps as much as she could but again sometimes don’t have any free time to spare…Products are very good and they completely understand engineers needs and never underestimate...
