great to work - Account Manager bei Conference Connections: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Staying at 5 star hotels Make contacts in the industry Incentives and bonuses can be good but are sporadic and are made to feel like it’s a bit of ‘pocket money’

No option to work from home, if you did get to for some reason when sick etc you’d have calls every 5 minutes and if you were in the bathroom when the MD called, you’d be questioned as to why you didn’t pick up Treatment of staff was very poor, staff were treated like children and often raised voice by MD and belittled Office is a ‘home office’ so lunch was eaten at desks and you never got to take a proper lunch break Some very high profile events but are all planned to a certain way, so nothing ever changes or you don’t get to use your creativity. If you do it is mostly shut down Very high turnover of staff, apparently some of them only lasting days/ weeks before walking out

The other 2 staff were nice to work with & talk to (when the Managing Director Colette wasn't there & couldn't ban us from talking to each other)

All the cons are surrounding the Managing Director Colette. - We were made eat lunch at our desks while continuing to work. - You would be given a nickname & not called by your name, one team member was referred to as baby. - We would be slapped on the arm & the back of the head. - We would receive calls late at night, where Colette would scream down the phone reducing you to tears. - You would only be allowed to take 8 hours in lieu if you worked 30+ hours at a weekend event. - You were made work late in the evenings very frequently. - You could not claim lieu when asked to work extra hours during the week. - The office furniture was falling apart, one chair was missing a leg and staff continuously fell off of it. - Staff in venues would complain of inappropriate touching of their staff by Colette. - Would pretend that staff in venues were stealing from her.
