Slow to progress and adopt change - Head of Finance Friends Life Employee Review

decent people, good cafe, easy parking

average tech and prospects, low salary,

Large company so a good benefits Package and 30 days holiday with the option to buy an extra 5 days. Also the possibility to move departments and try something new if you display the right qualities.

Cons were department specific, I worked in Customer Service in New Business and the department managers were the worst I have ever worked with. I quickly realised that no external candidates had lasted very long. The other managers were internal promotions so that was the only atmosphere they had ever known. One of the team members had a spray prescribed from their doctor just to use hen going into meetings with of the department managers, awful.
