Good salary, interesting technology, good colleagues.

Cons

Senior management insists employees return to the office at least one day a week, even though London and the South East are at tier 4 in response to COVID-19. The company continue to ignore government guidelines on working from home whenever possible, even after employees prove they can work effectively from home.

Senior leadership did not say why the decision to return to the office continues as the pandemic gets worse. Senior management is not doing anything to address people’s questions about COVID-19 or returning to the office. Senior management does not seem to care about the health of employees and their families.

Senior management has created a culture of silence around the handling of COVID-19, concerns about the virus, and any objections to returning to the office.

Avoid working at G-Research if you want to work for a reputable company that respects the health and well-being of its employees.

Advice to Management

Respect the spirit of the government guidance on working from home and social distancing.

Listen to employees or they will leave
