Thank you for your four-star review. We're pleased to see that you’ve had such a positive experience at NCFE. People are at the heart of our organisation, and we’re constantly evolving the colleague experience to ensure it remains relevant. For example, through the introduction of new benefits such as YOU celebration day (an extra paid day off), as well as a monthly YOU hour for colleagues to spend away from their roles to support their wellbeing and development. While we appreciate hybrid working isn’t suitable for everyone, it does provide a level of flexibility that colleagues enjoy. We’re also aware that workload can increase for certain teams during busy periods (for example, during the summer as we work hard to ensure learners receive their results on time) and colleague wellbeing is extremely important to us. We encourage all colleagues to speak to their line managers about any challenges they’re facing with workload and strive to prioritise and find solutions together.

Pros

This is an amazing place to work if you are a junior manager (Team Leader) or below. You could learn loads. The flexibility and benefits are good and the volunteering opportunities are fabulous

Cons

If you want to progress to senior management, avoid this place like the plague. There is no support for senior managers and the atmosphere is ‘look after yourself’ and cut throat. Senior managers are left to fend for themselves and at worst pitted amongst one another with limited resources and the culture is blaming and hostile. Take the learning opportunities and progress to a mid management level - then, in the words of the previous CEO (they’ve been through a few C-suite) - ‘find your happy elsewhere’
