Pros
Remote working was beneficial for a 'flexible' environment, but although the business 'promotes flexible working', we were all strictly on a Mon-Fri 9-17:30 shift pattern.
Cons
Very poor management from Snr HR Business Partner who was very unprofessional, took no consideration of our workload or wellbeing, very strong micromanagement culture. Witnessed the Snr HRBP give feedback to a colleague on a work night out in front of the rest of the team. Breaches of confidentiality where the Snr HRBP had discussed private matters about team members performance with other colleagues (E.G: discussing other colleagues probation reviews, overall performance etc.) Very poor salary for job title, role and responsibility, coupled with an unreasonable notice period. Unrealistic timeframes for objectives. Unpaid and unreasonable travel expectations outside of working hours and working days (E.G: Expected to travel over 300 miles in one day to assist with a meeting). Very low morale in entire team, however, the clique between the HRM and Snr HRBP did not allow for colleagues to raise their concerns, through fear of being performance-managed out of the business.
