Pros

If you don't want to work there are plenty of opportunities to come to the office and do as little as possible other than drinking coffee with colleagues

Cons

Virtually no growth or development opportunities, no transparency, a lot of gossip. Market level compensation and benefits.

Pros

Good company with big projects

Cons

Avoid Swindon back office, it is a locals lobby. Working at back office was a challenging experience, primarily due to the relentless micromanagement that permeated every aspect of the job. It was disheartening to witness a company and specially team leaders suffocate its employees' creativity and autonomy. From day one, it became apparent that individuality and independent thinking were discouraged. The constant need for approval and oversight stifled any opportunity for personal growth. It felt as though our every move was scrutinized, leaving no room for personal initiative or decision-making. The lack of trust exhibited by the management was palpable. Instead of fostering an environment of collaboration and empowerment, there was an excessive focus on minute details and an obsession with control. This not only undermined morale but also hindered productivity, as employees were discouraged from taking ownership of their work. Additionally, some team leaders' micromanagement at back office resulted in many colleagues leave. The incessant monitoring and unreasonable expectations led to increased stress levels among the team. It became increasingly difficult to maintain motivation and enthusiasm in such an oppressive atmosphere. Instead of fostering a supportive and collaborative atmosphere, there was an atmosphere of fear and constant belittlement. I hope that RWE recognizes the detrimental effects of micromanagement and reevaluates its approach in order to cultivate a more empowering and collaborative work environment but last but not least ensure team leaders have taken necessary training for managing people Equally in a Corporate environment.

Pros

Went through 3 rounds of interview & it was a fantastic experience. The 1st round was purely technical, second was the behavioral and the third one was with the head of IT. All these rounds were smooth and to the point. The recruiter was keeping me informed about the next rounds and what's most important is the time duration between these interview rounds, which seemed very structured. Every week was progressive.

Cons

Nothing as of now as I am yet to join.
