Pluspunten
Nice office in Manchester city centre. Good benefits package including private insurance. Fast-paced growth, which could benefit you if you’re friends with management.
Minpunten
They talk a lot about diversity but their focus seems to be on junior roles rather than a balance across all levels. Management (on CTS services side) wants to make it seem like they care but they only listen and take advise into consideration if it benefits them. If there’s any constructive feedback or criticism, they take it as an attack and things remain the same. They’ve been hiring many senior roles, and the vast majority seem to have a previous professional relationship with a couple of people leading the company. Don’t let the recruitment process fool you! They conduct interviews to “make sure the process is fair” even if it’s clear they’ve already made a decision before the recruitment process even started. HR won’t help at all unless it fits the company’s agenda and some are even patronising when you raise an issue, making it seem like it’s all on you and not a toxic work environment. I joined a fantastic company, it’s a shame that it’s changed so much!
