Pros
- Free lunch - Decent pay - Some good people (but running out fast)
Kontras
An awful, awful place to work. Companies really show their true colours when things go badly and Checkout is in a death spiral. There is a revolving door of execs (10 in 18 months and counting!! 😂). Each new appointment weaker than the last, along with knee jerk changes in strategy every time. After the latest "shake up" nobody knows what anybody is or should be working on. Rumours spread faster than the truth, breeding a toxic working environment. The people who rise to the top do so by undermining others - individualism and ladder climbing is rewarded over collaboration. Questioning the direction is not permitted. One of our new "Operating principles" is Talk Straight, yet anonymous questions are banned. No one in the organisation would dare ask an uncomfortable question without that protection (those that do are swiftly and quietly exited) and Q&As have become meaningless as a result.
