Advice to Management
Its about the children and education remember that, its not about egos or ourseleves.
Good and bad
Pros
Great home-friendly working arrangements and plenty of opportunities (in theory) to change roles and to relocate across the country.
Cons
Doesn’t live up to its stated values on the treatment of people. While hot on things like diversity, it tolerates abusive behaviour by people who are ‘too senior’ to challenge.
Advice to Management
If people claim that they are bullied, the sad truth is that it might be true. Take it seriously.
