Pros
The people genuinely care about NBS' mission, other colleagues and our customers. The culture is the best I've experienced. The pay and benefits structure compares reasonably well for other companies in the East Midlands. Working arrangements are generally very flexible. Leaders are empowered to make decisions without micromanagement and lengthy escalations. The onboarding process was smooth and the recruitment team especially are such powerful champions for NBS. Really interesting, edgy, purpose-drive and commercially sound strategy. My role is diverse and will grow as the society grows, which keeps things interesting. Recruitment over the last 2/3 years has brought some genuinely exceptional talent into the business.
Cons
As NBS goes through another wave of change, with many new faces onboard, how management leads will be critically important to NBS' success. Colleagues generally work very hard and it's a particularly busy period for the society - so how management seeks to bring colleagues along with them on the journey will determine how well NBS performs.
