Cosa ti è piaciuto di più del processo del colloquio lavorativo?

Interview processes are hardly ever enjoyable, let's be honest.

La cosa più positiva della cultura e l'ambiente presso la tua azienda?

It's a mixed bag really, and fully depends on who you are partnered up with.

Quali sono alcune delle cose migliori della tuo team?

They are fun to socialise with, and the sense of humour is great. You still get your few that you wish you'd never met, and there is a lot of moaning, whining and arguing though.

Perché ti senti sottovalutato e che cosa ti farebbe sentire meglio con il tuo compenso?

If there were better employee benefits and more motivating factors then the job would be much better. But with restructuring, growth in the business is diminishing and no matter how hard you work, if you're at the lower end of the seniority you're essentially a dogsbody.

Che cosa sta andando male e come può essere migliorato?

There are cuts in labour everywhere meaning customers aren't getting the best service because there just aren't the hours in the day to do so. No motivation and the moaners get their way. Restructuring has created unachievable workloads leading to delays in mail. Focus only on tracked and specials.

Cosa ti piace di più del team di leadership?

The managers are good people, but the way the business is run (with labour cuts etc.) leaves their hands tied. And gives way for full time staff to get away with doing less, and part time staff picking up the pieces. The harder workers are always used to pick up the pieces of other people's work.
