Pros

good transport connections to oxford street location

Cons

When a company has to TELL people who work there to write nice things on a website you know it's in trouble. Three 5* ratings in a row and all on the same day is a bit of a give away! The company is full of people trying to look busy who don't have a clue about what they are doing and who think that having a free breakfast will make people think this is a modern company. Anyone you ask will agree it's a pretty embarrassing place to work and at least three or four of the board they put together for employees to sit on have already left the company. Managers act like children and are scared of the bosses and anyone with any real experience or skill has either left or is leaving. They keep talking about being on a 'journey' but nobody knows where its actually going. I'm looking for a new job and i wouldn't recommend you take my place.

Hi there, I'm Steph and I am a very proud member of the HR team here at Centaur. I'm really sorry to read this review - part of my role here is to enable Centaur to be an even better place to work so I would love to have a confidential chat to get your views about what we can do to help and support our people. We do ask people if they enjoy working here to write a review for us, like most companies do on Glassdoor, but clearly we can't control the content! Give me a call or an email, I'm very friendly, and would love to get your views.. Thanks Steph

Pros

I have loved working here, nice small community that has been built. All employees are great to work with and there is always something different going on.

Cons

Some of the work is repetative, but that is standard for most office jobs.

Pros

NONE! This place is no longer what it was. The wrong people have been put into positions to hire and fire at free will.

Cons

NONE!This place is no longer what it was. Decisions that will HUGELY impact the business are now being made by singular individuals with PERSONAL vendettas who are clearly not qualified in an attempt to cover their own incompetence, and laziness and to cover the incompetence and laziness of their friends without a care of how these decisions will actually impact the business as long as THEY keep their job and paycheck. Management cater to their friends, making decisions to benefit these friends and if you don’t fit that mold you will be pushed out.
