Friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Nice coffees!

Cons

Slow and painful admin. There are several initiatives to make it feel like a university (from the researcher's point of view) but they do not work well...

Pros

Free low quality coffee, 30 days annual leave - if you can take them - but you'll need un

Cons

A duplicitous organisation that pretends to be woke whilst treating most staff like trash. The pay and perks are terrible for the majority of staff and the redundancy payouts the lowest in the UK. They also expect notice to be worked without discussion. Current staff best look for work ASAP or just leave to save your sanity. Anyone joining should really think twice. No one senior wants to make a decision or is even capable, and every internal process is painful and inefficent. The senior execs received pay rises and are mostly over paid compared to other staff, and yet its the productive lower paid staff who get the chop. Nice. Even their funder, UKRI was surprised by recent Exec pay rises. The research is mostly second tier with partners looking elsewhere, and who can blame them. The only question is, does the new CEO know how dysfunctional this place really is?
