Pluspunten
Pretty good company to work for, great flexible hours where you can adjust the schedule to your work needs around personal life - no fixed work hours. General encouragement for self-development, reimbursement of professional fees and cloud certification fees (i.e. AWS, Azure exams). Not much pressure around project deadlines, usually you do things at your own pace. I really enjoyed working here. • Good work-life balance, flexible hours • Good sick pay • Generous pension
Minpunten
Progression is virtually impossible - back in 2022 I applied for a senior role advertised at a higher salary and got myself an interview. Later on, I had the HR person calling me and asking to go UNDER the advertised salary for that role because "it would be a very big jump in pay" and he wasn't "sure what other people in HR would say about this". This experience made me realise that I cannot stay at a company that does not encourage progression and eventually moved to a different company. I hope that Jisc will reconsider the current strategy on progression and reward their employees based on their merit and allow them progress into higher position regardless of what they currently make. • Lack of progression • Much lower pay for tech jobs in comparison with the going rate
