Pros

Nothing I can say here.

Cons

Some roles are good and if your face fits you're ok here. It's a bit stuck in the dark ages they're not very forward thinking. Certain departments don't get utilised like they should eg the marketing team act more like a PA for the Directors! Their attitude towards women is really concerning. Lots of inappropriate comments towards female staff made by senior staff members. Attitudes towards people of ethnic origin also has a lot to be desired. Old fashioned IT but you can't challenge this because the IT manager will just shout at you and the directors laugh and find this acceptable in the workplace. They have work socials but if you get drunk the director will gossip about you! But if you're prepared to play the game the directors will love you. They seem to think they're absolutely huge, they've one office in Retford! Really low staff turnover problem with this all the staff have no aspirations and just keep things ticking over. Alot of staff here wouldn't last 5 mins in a big company too set in their ways. My time at Moody's was highly disappointing, they think they're a family, well I don't treat my family they way they treat some of their staff!

Dear Anonymous. This post has been drawn to my attention today. We have also noticed that a negative review was left on Indeed on the same day that this review was posted and so I am assuming that both posts have been made by the same person. You have raised several points in your post and it is disappointing that you did not raise these concerns with us whilst you were employed here and give us the opportunity to address them. We are very proud of our low staff turnover and we have many long serving colleagues. If anyone has any concerns or issues we encourage them to raise them. It is unfortunate when anonymous public statements like this are made as it is difficult for us as a company to respond. If you would be good enough to contact me I would very much like to discuss the concerining points you have raised. David

Pros

Some teams are nice to work.

Cons

I didn't like it here. They don't value hard work it feels very if your face fits you can do what you want. Passive aggressive middle managers who have no impact but they're in post cos their face fits . People from other cultures and backgrounds not respected saw several concerning incidents

Dear Anonymous. It is incredibly frustrating that people have the ability to make statements or allegations, using anonymous public platforms, that may be true, or untrue, whilst keeping their identity private. The ability for people to be able to make negative comments in this anonymous way makes it impossible for us as a company to investigate the allegations made in statements that are posted. As per my comments on the previous, anonymous, post from a review left in December 2022 I would ask that the person who has posted this comment contacts me, in the strictest of confidence, so that we can discuss the points that have been raised in the post and to enable a proper and thorough investigation of their concerns to take place.
