Used to be brilliant - now a sinking ship?

Pros

Struggling here to be honest... - Established UK college network. - Good base salaries (although everybody is under review) - Formerly year on year growth (before current leadership took over). - Formerly highly motivated staff around the entire network. - Used to have a strong and effective leadership team.

Cons

I know it's easy to bleat on about how good things used to be, but this is a real example of how not to change things for the better. - Do not appropriately recognise loyalty and talent. - Other than holiday, poor benefits all round - Good will/discretionary effort by staff is fast declining. - Most of the established and respected leaders have jumped ship or been moved on. - Low morale caused by ineffective change management and poor decision making by UK leadership. - Double standards - UK Leadership talks a lot about 'behaviours' and 'holding each other to account' but are not held to account themselves for their behaviour. - HR operating as a decision making body in disguise.

Pros

Very diverse workforce with lots of different experiences. I worked at a pathway college which specialised in the area of indirect entry to uniersity degrees. Thus we worked hard for our students.

Cons

I had a very disorganised manager, who created a lot more problems and hurdles to overcome than necessary. Many students gad a sense of entitlement which was misplaced.
