An Amazing Place to Work

Pros

I have been with the business over 5 years. The company has fully supported my progress within the business over this time, both personal development and development to the benefit of the company. I love working here. I work with an amazing team, both my direct team and the wider business are filled with amazing people. My direct team and management are supportive and we check in weekly how everybody is and what we can do better/what we have done well. If there is something wrong, we do something about it, if something has been done well, we make sure it is recognised. Within our team we try to make other members of the business aware of when they have done something that has made our working lives easier, its nice to focus on the good rather than always the bad. The business has grown considerably in my time with the Fourth, there is always room for progression and recognition and reward is in my opinion second to none. There are many benefits, Summer and Christmas parties which are always well executed and reward schemes to reward individuals for their hard work. As the majority of the employees within the Cheshire office drive, rather than Friday drinks as the London office do, we have a monthly breakfast club and a fun club that hosts fun events for employees. We have wellness events and free fruit in the office twice weekly. As the business has grown, the business has recognised the need internally for employee training and introduced new measures to ensure all employees are in the know. We have quarterly updates keeping us in the loop of the companies current obligations/goals/achievements/issues, these are open and honest and welcome feedback which the execs respond to directly.

Cons

Sometimes things within the business are allowed to get to an all time low before something is done about it, in the past Fourth has been pretty reactive rather than proactive - i think this has changed considerably within the past 12 months but more can be done to keep on with this and we should continue to progress processes to ensure we are more pro-active. We need to be prepared and know our business well to be able to keep our customers happy.

Really great advice and something we must continue to practice as well as preach! Thanks for a great and balanced review and pleased that you have noticed our commitment to employee development and better communication. We aren't quite there yet but certainly on the right path. Best Wishes, Jon Walder

Pros

- management that really cares and understands and that matters and is seen from people who are open to see it - professionalism - freedom to say what you really think

Cons

- more process lead decisions which sometimes are not necessary and are not the best thing to do

This was great to read! We really do care and it is nice to see this does not go unnoticed (few double negatives there but you get the idea). If we all stay on mission and values focused we can ahieve a lot. Great advice! Take care, Jon Walder
