Pros

Good culture Great company benefits Good work/life balance

Cons

No career development, a lot of the department are quite senior therefore the general consensus for progression isn't high on the priority list. As the employees enjoy their work life balance - no one really pushes for promotions. Unfortunately for lower level employees who are looking to progress, there isn't a sufficient progression structure in place. They only provide personal objectives without any form of timeline.

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We're happy to read you feel your salary is competitive, you have lots of opportunity for progression, and that you’re working with great people. We also think that our B Corp certification is brilliant! We hope you’d agree that we pay a competitive base salary, and do offer different bonus schemes depending on your role within the contact centre. We’d encourage you to pick up the conversation with your manager or the People Team if you’d like to chat through further. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts.
