Burnout central - Anonymous employee Holy Trinity Brompton Employee Review

- London office is easily accessible for remote staff and in a good location - Team goals are celebrated well - Team retreats - Different opportunities to help at large-scale events - Medical benefits

- Limited opportunities for personal and professional growth - Overworked teams with little support, lots of burnout and signed off sickness across departments - Clear favouritism from senior leadership - No debriefs from projects to assess if time/money/work led to success - Lots of talk about strategy but little implementation of it practically - Poor HR systems, frequent redundancies and poor handling of staff returning to work

Day to day staff genuinely believe in what they're doing and will work till they drop out of passion and loyalty.

The pros are exploited at every turn by cynical and uncaring senior management and leaders. Staff forced to facilitate dangerous requests of staff and volunteers during Covid. Being asked to work such extreme hours that even the higher wages of management level employees frequently fell below minimum wage. Spiritual exploitation was rife - refusing to work to burnout seen as a sign of not loving Jesus enough. Carpet bagging diversity as a buzz word and 'taking accountability' while ensuring senior management overwhelmingly remains white, middle/upper class, and male. Happy to accept gay/LGBT interns but not embrace LGBT people or marriage more widely. Upper managers telling senior leadership 'yes to everything' and dumping the work and stress of that onto low level employees to figure out. An environment that necessarily exploits volunteers because the majority of staff are also being exploited.
