A lot of turn over at the top and bottom.

Pros

A somewhat creative culture dampened by uncertainty.

Cons

Future sold us off and then bought us back. Who knows what's next.

Pros

Like most media companies, Future's been through some difficult times. But the current management, strategy and vision is delivering fantastic growth. Equally important is the work that's been done to improve the working culture, office environments and, crucially, communication, which has been transformed in the last 12 months. Naturally it's a fast-paced place to work, and can sometimes be long hours, but it offers good benefits, including a chance for all employees to share in the profits when the business hits targets.

Cons

The offices are all in lovely locations, but that also means they're often very expensive places to live.

Pros

I've been here just short of a year, and can honestly say it's the best place I have ever worked. The company is constantly growing and developing and is not only passionate about their brands but also their employees. I have found a true home with Future and look forward to all of the exciting changes and developments as they unfold. The loveliest, most passionate people I have ever worked with!

Cons

Pay can vary, and perhaps a banding system might be a good idea so that all employees feel treated fairly. That being said there are amazing incentives at Future with regards to annual profit pool and enhanced annual leave.
