      Pros

      Nice office, some lovely people.

      Cons

      Toxic environment at senior leadership level. Lots of power playing and some managers are so focused on their agenda, they don’t take people with them. Leadership style didn’t align with my values and wasn’t prepared to operate in that way. Real lack of longer term strategy.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We're sorry to hear that you didn't have a positive experience working at LBS and we're concerned to hear that you've witnessed behaviours leading a toxic culture - that's not the experience we want for any of colleagues. We would really value your time to explore these concerns further to better understand where we need to do better for our colleagues and our culture. Please reach out to us at colleagueexperience@leedsbuildingsociety.co.uk if you're keen to chat and discuss this further with us. Best wishes Colleague Experience Team

      Pros

      Great at giving required information, responsive, friendly and helpful.

      Cons

      They contacted my previous employer to ask for a reference without my prior permission. My boss at my old organisation was very understanding but it made things slightly awkward and it's not how I'd planned for things to go. They were apologetic about the error.

      Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review, we hope you are settling in well. Our careers portal asks candidates to confirm whether they are happy for us to contact their previous employers. We use this information to either request the reference or wait until further permission is provided. We do our upmost to ensure that requests for references are sent out in line with the candidate’s approval and we’re sorry that there was an issue with your referencing. This is something we continue to look at as part of our onboarding process.
