Pros

A progressive company that distinguishes itself from its competitors by delivering a quality service through its people. Clear values embedded within the organisation that uphold its Mission statement and Strategic Plan. People are its biggest asset and demonstrate a drive and hunger to be the best. Excellent collaborative atmosphere. Company has strong ethical values.

Cons

Greater investment in IT (it's coming) and must ensure it does not take its eye off work/life balance.

Hello and thank you for your review. Your comments about us having clear values within the organisation are a real positive given the wide consultation programme we ran earlier in the year involving colleagues from across the business to better understand and articulate our values at EW around delivering brilliant service, optimism, integrity and teamwork. Thank you for highlighting IT investment and work/life balance, both of which we are working on improving this year. Thanks again for taking time out to write this review!

Pros

Career opportunities are good. Salaries are decent. There are some nice individuals within the business.

Cons

Awful, awful dictatorship style management from the top down. Massive labour turnover. An utterly ridiculously political environment. Some leaders in the business are more concerned with escalating their own image and financial worth within the business and they are happy to use you as cannon fodder. Lied to, on a number of occasions. Told there would be a secure job for us after restructures, only to find out some of our jobs had already been recruited for and then individuals previously told there would be a place for them at WN have then been made redundant. They literally couldn't care less about your wellbeing if they tried... They have just launched a wellbeing charter - which would be great. However on recent group meetings there has even been ridiculous things like a 'car park hierarchy' where the senior people in the business get to park closer to the door, and the minions have to park further down the car park. Awful, awful, awful, toxic and damaging environment.

Thank you for taking the time to write this feedback. We're so sorry to hear of your experiences and can assure you that a great deal of work has been carried out recently to set the foundation for a positive culture within WorkNest, including the articulation of our Values and holding people to account if they are not aligned to these. We are also progressing our leadership development and I can assure you that no such hierarchy exists today. Thank you for your contribution and we wish you well in your future plans.
