Pros

The company is very forward thinking and not the worst place to work. The wages offered are fair (although slightly below the industry standard), and there is opportunity to grow via applying for open vacancies internally. However, there are not appraisals or promotions. Most of the people that I work with genuinely have a passion for sustainability. Most of the work is remote as well.

Cons

The company likes to consider itself a scale-up, but is unable to transition further in the way that it operates. Changes are made in business operations very suddenly, and employees directly affected usually find out on the day, without prior consultation. When it comes to the directors, it's very much a case of 'my way or the highway', and this is what holds the business back from growing further. A few of the directors are also very unpleasant and disrespectful, and even when multiple complaints are raised by staff, these seem to be ignored. I would only recommend working here if you have worked at a start-up previously. Changes are constantly made that truly don't make a lot of sense. Staff turnover is high, due to many similar businesses competing in the climate tech market, and overall dissatisfaction at how you are treated on a daily basis. They are currently making redundancies left right and centre so not a secure job at all. Overall I would not recommend.

Hello. I'm sorry to see your feelings on the company. I see it stated you are a current employee, so you will know that the appraisal process was trained and implemented with reviews going on right now. We are a start-up company and with our growth we are improving our employee value proposition, processes and systems, this often feels like change but without it we cannot improve efficiency and engagement. Complaints are certainly taken seriously where we are made aware of them, they are acknowledged and addressed. At the time of your review 13th December 2023 to date no redundancies have been made. Please speak to People & Culture so we can understand your feedback better. Best wishes, People & Culture Manager

There are some brilliant, skilled colleagues who are a pleasure to work with.

Not great decision-making from some of the management. Only cares about pleasing certain clients rather than the environment.
