Pros

Good work & home life balance / attained good career progression in the time I have been with the company / progressive thinking & open to new ideas / striving to develop leadership skills across the organisation to empower colleagues and improve colleague retention rates / friendly / open communication within department / clear goals set out by SLT / good worker integration and engagement at head office / improved communication between staff and line managers in recent times and feedback is no very much improved

Cons

An outgoing legacy of poor inter-departmental communication / home based workers sometimes feel out on a limb however less in recent times / very KPI driven

Hello, thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. The detail you have provided is very helpful to us. It is great to hear all the positives you can identify - we are working hard to improve communication across the business so it good to know it is having a positive effect. We are aware of the challenges that home based colleagues face and we still have work to do to ensure that we continue to reduce the feeling of being out on a limb. I would encourage you to discuss your ideas on how we can improve inter-departmental communication with your manager so we can work to break down the barriers that you feel still exist. Thanks again for your feedback and best wishes for continued success in your role.

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.
