Pros
Free corporate gold hospital cover for staff
Cons
Being a not for profit with no shareholders to report to, senior leadership make poor decisions with zero accountability. These decisions have ultimately lead to project timelines blowing out by years and the employee culture surveys returning a very poor engagement score. There is very little psychological safety and a good example of this was demonstrated by a senior leader who would belittle and argue with staff who opposed the changes to flexible work options. This behaviour was on display for all to see during the monthly all in meetings with 200+ employees and external consultants in attendance. HBF has a gender equality pay gap of 38% with no female CEO in its 80+ years history, There is currently a significant influx of former employees reaching out and seeking new employment online. This has prompted me to write my review and warn others to avoid the toxic culture and poor management.
