      The company has changed - and not for the better

      Pros

      One thing about fastmarkets is it’s really flexible with working hours and there is a huge amount of learning courses you can partake in

      Cons

      When I joined during the Euromoney era, remote working and half day Fridays were part of the deal. Under Astorg ownership, both have quietly disappeared, with a three day office requirement now in place. Progression is limited. Leadership openly admits the way to get promoted is to play the corporate game rather than perform well. Workloads have increased significantly and management show little interest in addressing this. The business goes through constant restructuring with no apparent awareness of the damage this does to morale. The impact on people’s mental health is real and goes completely unacknowledged. There is no genuine support, and the pressure is relentless. This is a company that treats people as replaceable. They pay below market rate and claim to run salary benchmarks, but when you ask to see the evidence, it never materialises. By the time I left, the atmosphere had become genuinely toxic. Closing my laptop for the last time felt like a relief.

We also acknowledge the concerns you’ve raised around progression, workload, restructuring, and workplace culture. Over the past few years, the business has evolved significantly, and with that change has come adjustments to ways of working, including our hybrid model. This model was created to support a more inclusive and collaborative culture, balancing flexibility with the value of in-person connection and teamwork.

We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the nature of the reporting work and career focus within price reporting.
