Pros

You will get to work with an amazing team and talented people.

Cons

Be aware that many positive reviews in here have been given by the leadership team forced to do so or by the company owners! At the Drum, life and work balance doesn't exist. You will end up working more than 10 hours per day, sometimes also on weekends for a low/mediocre wage. Overtime is not paid and you are lucky if your line manager agrees to give you a few days in lieu. Bonuses are given to the staff once a year (only if targets are hit) but won't pay for the amount of overtime worked. Ridiculous benefits: a weekly bowl of fruit in the office before covid, and an extra £25 each over Christmas to pay for our lunches. Training plan is a joke: you won't get a penny if you decide to take on a training and your development plan consists in your commitment to take up more work. Staff isn't valued and you will have to work very hard to get a promotion which will probably come with no or an insignificant pay rise. The HR manager at The Drum doesn't exists: this will make you understand how much they care about their employees.
