Pros

Working at Robert Welch provides a great balance of creativity, heritage and modern commercial drive. As a product-led business, there is a genuine focus on good design and it is really rewarding to be part of a team that values quality, detail and long-term thinking. The current situation of remote-working 4 days out of 5 greatly helps my work/life balance and I feel in my role, promotes productivity. I feel a real sense of pride in being part of this successful company that never stands still. We are encouraged to share ideas and push boundaries to drive the business forward which makes for an engaging and exciting place to work.

Cons

The office locations may feel remote for some, but inspiring to others - one being on the top floor of an 18th Century Silk Mill and the other site is a purpose built energy efficient offices and warehouse building using environmentally sustainable solutions.

Pros

Nice office location and warehouse. Colleagues for the most part.

Cons

Never have I worked for a company that offers less support, development or opportunity for employees. Not only do you have to face the daily degradation of working for owners who have little or no leadership skills it is impossible to get past their gatekeepers of a middle management team. Instead of recognising talent and potential within the existing workforce the solution is to summarily dismiss existing staff and replace them with new models or 'consultants' with irrelevant experience. Time and time again good people are lost because management don't bring on and develop potential. A dead end company with dead end opportunity, useless HR and no idea of what they're doing.
