Ok - Finance Assistant School Trends Employee Review

A great company to work for, offers a good work life balance for its hard working staff. Customers are at the heart of everything the company does. The company is Employee Owned so everyone is able to be involved in key decisions. School Trends completes regular staff questionnaires to get feedback from its staff and make improvements. It recently won Gold Investors In People status as it invests in training and improving its people to meet our school and parent customer needs. As a current employee I'd recommend School Trends as a good place to work.

Lack of investment in the building but this is due to keeping garments cheaper for customers who are at the heart of everything the company does

Unique people-centred culture, caring and inclusive with opportunities to grow and progress. Staff are shareholders (employee owned) so they have a say in most things, lots of information shared - good and bad. Family feel, loyal and committed workers in the main. Job security high.

Decision making is sluggish - takes too long to 'move with the times'. Lack of investment in IT infrastructure makes getting work done difficult sometimes. Over tolerance of under performance means some people go unchallenged for too long.
