Pros

Working at WorkNest as an HR Advisor has been a genuinely rewarding experience. WorkNest's values and behaviours - integrity, excellence, teamwork and inclusion - aren’t just buzzwords here; they are embedded in the culture and in how we work every day. One of the standout aspects for me is the strong focus on diversity and inclusion and the role of WorkNest's Inclusion Alliance. There is a clear commitment to creating a welcoming environment where people from all backgrounds feel respected and valued, and initiatives in this space are taken seriously, not just as a tick-box exercise. The Wellbeing Charter is another great aspect of the culture. It’s not just empty words, it’s reflected in how people are treated. There’s a real emphasis on work-life balance, mental health support, and making sure employees feel heard and supported. The benefits package is competitive, with flexible working options, generous annual leave, and access to resources that genuinely support both professional and personal wellbeing. Lastly, the team is fantastic and I’ve felt supported from day one. There’s a real sense of camaraderie across departments, all striving towards the same goal. You are expected to work hard and give 110% but there is genuine recognition and celebration of employees and our achievements. We recently celebrated our annual WorkNest Value Awards where 26 of our colleagues across the business were celebrated and thanked for the incredible work they do.

Cons

As with any growing organisation, there can be moments where change comes quickly, and priorities shift. It’s not necessarily a negative - it’s part of being agile - but it does mean you need to be comfortable with change and be adaptable in these situations.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. We're delighted to hear that your experience as an HR Advisor has been so positive and that our values are reflected in your day-to-day experience. Building a culture where these values are genuinely lived, rather than simply stated, is incredibly important to us. It's particularly rewarding to hear your recognition of our commitment to diversity, inclusion and wellbeing. Initiatives such as our Inclusion Alliance and Wellbeing Charter are designed to create an environment where everyone feels respected, supported and able to thrive, and we're pleased that this commitment has resonated with you. We're also glad that you've found our benefits package, flexible working arrangements and development opportunities valuable, and that you've experienced the strong sense of teamwork and camaraderie that exists across the business. Celebrating our colleagues' achievements through initiatives such as the WorkNest Value Awards is something we take great pride in, and it's wonderful to hear this has had a positive impact. Thank you also for your balanced feedback regarding change and evolving priorities. As a growing business, maintaining agility is important, but so too is ensuring our colleagues feel informed and supported throughout periods of change. We appreciate your advice and will continue to focus on transparent communication while recognising and celebrating both the big milestones and the everyday successes that make a difference. Thank you again for your contribution to WorkNest and for sharing your experience. We wish you a successful career with us at WorkNest. Katie Muncaster, CPO

Pros

Uncompromising in their approach to treating their staff

Cons

You can't blame people when they are put in a fishbowl of pressure for unrealistic results for investors but also the senior team is a boys club who will do anything to keep their position.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with senior management didn’t meet your expectations. We take comments like these seriously, as creating an inclusive, collaborative, and supportive environment is a priority for us. It’s worth noting that our colleague engagement scores for this team have consistently been very high, which reflects the positive experiences many of our team members have had. However, we understand that every perspective is unique, and we are committed to listening and learning from all feedback to ensure everyone feels valued and supported. If you’re open to it, we’d welcome a more detailed conversation to better understand your concerns and explore ways to address them. Thank you again for your input, and we wish you all the best in your future. Kind regards, Katie Muncaster, CPO
