Is this your company?

Awful place to work, horrific management at a senior level. Would rate 0 stars if possible. - Anonymous employee Middlesbrough College   Employee Review

Pros

None, I would have normally said job security but since the senior management team have slowly dragged the place to the ground there's no guarantee of that anymore.

Cons

Horrific salaries, dreadful offices and workstations, continuously asked to go over and above for no extra money, staff redundancies at lower levels whilst top level staff get pay rises and promotions. You're not allowed to do the job that you're employed to do without someone interfering and telling you "how it should be done". Highly ineffective policy changes that have ruined staff moral even further. Absolutely no hope of any progression or career development and no chance of anyone ever getting a salary increase unless you're willing to have someone else's job rolled into yours. Constant irrelevant mandatory training for all staff. Waste of time.

Pros

None at all other than I got paid. Would rate 0 stars if possible.

Cons

Bad management. Will make staff feel ignored and not wanted. Lack of communication. Some staff will be told a new process but not the staff who need to follow it. Managers will pass their work off to already overworked staff then call them workshy to HR when they are struggling. Staff will be told to get the numbers even if learners don't qualify. The numbers which were made up by chatgpt which they use to write there tenders and all linkedin posts. Will actively make staff know they are not wanted and say they could get an apprentice to do their job. They also don't look at the cvs of who they interview and leave confidential staff information in unlocked filing cabinets for anyone to find.
