Great people, but poor pay - Policy Manager Policy Connect Employee Review

- From the get go was given great opportunities and responsibilities with helping with a report launch - Was able to publish articles on their website - great as an intern! -Everyone was very friendly and supportive - Felt like there wasn't really a hierarchy - everyone felt reachable and welcoming - Great set-up of having an internship supervisor and a mentor - both very helpful - Got great experience in stakeholder management, collaboration across teams, policy analysis and written communication, social media/comms, and staying organised alongside full-time study. -Great work-life balance - flexible but also employees still being in office a lot of the time. Very 9-5 with significant lunch break.

Too short - would love to have stayed longer! Sadly no jobs available at the moment!

- Very easy to make friends - Know everyone well- tight knit - Sociable place to work - Contact with ministers/MPs and exposure to Parliament gives good experience for your CV and opens career opportunities

-High turnover -Low pay -Outdated company culture Unfortunately managers are not particularly open to remote or flexible working. Hours can be rigid, except when you're required to work extra hours in the evening due to events. This one-way expectation causes friction. Employees on lower pay have indistinguishable duties from their more 'senior' and higher paid colleagues. Additionally, some teams appear micromanaged- which makes the company culture seem more outdated.
