      Bullied, unsupported, no vision! Staff pushed out or forced to leave.

      Pros

      Rewarding to see and hear the success stories of the young people who move on from care. This is down to the love and support of the key front line workers, not 'Senior Management'.

      Cons

      A bullying management team at head office, staff mysteriously and suddenly leave, become demoted or pushed out of roles they love. A highly funded and financed charity that can't put a figure on what £5, £10 or £20 would actually do to help a young person in care or moving on. Staff are not given the opportunity to flourish and grow in roles, no coaching or development. Staff affairs, no clear vision or future thoughts of what the charity aims to do. The answer is tackle the wider issues so young people don't have to face care. Overpaid CEO and senior management teams that do what exactly??...

      Pros

      Variety - genuinely quite interesting work. You can really learn and create a place for yourself if you put the work in. Good place to cut your teeth and get into bigger projects.

      Cons

      Very high workload, very limited resource. Stick rather than carrot when it comes to culture. Expectation of unpaid work such as no one taking their lunch hour.
