Pros

Swanky London office Great Brand Presence Some lovely wines in the range

Cons

Look it’s been well documented over the years that it is a challenging place to work with fundamental issues around culture and leadership, so there’s little new I can add, but let’s be clear all the old issues remain and get slowly more pernicious If you’re considering joining Nyetimber do have a long hard think and do disregard the fake reviews on here which are easy to spot, as they’re glowing. Management structure in Nyetimber is in my view fatally flawed. The company is run by one man who I believe is uniquely unqualified to do so, something he admitted by stepping back and allowing a professional to do for one month only before re-seizing the reins. Those senior managers below him, in my view, survive less on their talent, but more on their sycophancy. Employees are kept in the dark, untrusted and undervalued and the churn the company suffers as a result is staggering, costly and detrimental to their success and profits Honestly I wouldn’t touch it with yours. Some nice wines produced but that is now an expectation and doesn’t set the brand apart from its peer group who are now overtaking it

Nyetimber Response

Thank you to the author(s) of the recent reviews, made in quick succession, for taking the time to provide feedback on working for Nyetimber. We do not consider the comments to be reflective of our organisation, corporate culture and values. It is always sad when former employees feel unhappy with an experience at work, and it is a shame when incorrect information is shared publicly. We feel the feedback does not reflect the majority of our employees who have a positive experience with us and are successful at Nyetimber, and with whom we have achieved so much already. We encourage staff to raise concerns or come with suggestions to their line manager or to the HR team and regret that those who reviewed here negatively, appear not to have done so. We wish you all the best in your future endeavours.

Pros

Staff from other departments are great to work with. Very friendly. Very interesting business. Great product!

Cons

Management inside the my department, have very little technical knowledge, I would say the structure is bad but there is no structure. No interest in saving money, tracking spends, or implementing improvements. Everything comes across as made up. Poor organisational skills all the way down to a document control level. Many previous people in this position, all leave for the same reasons. When you voice concerns they will elude to change but never implement it.
