Pros
I worked with some really good and genuinely nice people during my time there but this was overshadowed by the toxicity of the culture top down.
Cons
Where to start? What ever Nuffield Health says it is on the label, certainly isn’t what’s inside the tin. It purports to have the health and well-being of the nation as its core objectives and yet I saw no real commitment to employee well-being during my time with this company. So far. To be honest, quite the reverse. Nuffield Health is led by a toxic leadership culture that believes it is untouchable, beyond reproach and faultless, I.e. the sacred cow. Instead of learning and developing from mistakes, SLT surround themselves with close allies, I.e. friends and family members and get rid of anyone who may dare to suggest they’ve made error of judgements or even challenge their perceptions. This is born out by the continual sways of organisational culling that has occurred over the last several years. And for those who haven’t been culled, good and talented people eventually get out rather than continue to be subjected to the bullying ways of senior leadership who are more than prepared to throw people under a bus than admit to their own failings.
