Pros

Learn a lot from direct managers Room for growth You will gain a lot of knowledge and it'd very hands on.

Cons

The people at the top are not communicative and a bit unorganized. This puts a lot of pressure on direct managers. Company overall cares more about their clients than employees. Low pay compared to competitors. Unfair pay btwn reporters.

Thank you for your feedback. At Fastmarkets we focus on communication at all levels of the company. The programme of global townhalls, quarterly appraisals, regular team meetings and 1-2-1's are all representative of this. In our most recent employee survey 87% said they understood the company strategy and 81% of employees said that they had clear goals and know what is expected of them. Employee engagement and well-being is of key importance to us as a business. This can be seen in a variety of ways, from offering detailed career development conversations as part of our quarterly appraisal process to the launch of global mental health first-aiders. We recently brought in a work-from-anywhere policy and a two-and-a-half-day weekend as part of this work to ensure the well-being of staff. We are very pleased that you recognise the opportunity to grow and gain knowledge here and of course we strive to be much more than a 'stepping stone' to our teams. Thank you for sharing your feedback.

Pros

If you enjoy nasty colleagues and racism then you're in the correct place. This is the most racism I've ever faced in my life.

Cons

You will get depression and stress

Its incredibly disappointing to read your comments. If indeed behaviors like this do exist within the business, I would hope that anyone would take responsibility to raise theses issues, so that we can manage any such examples with immediacy. We are fully committed to a inclusive and diverse working environment. And these are not just words or aspirations. This commitment is embedded in our values, how we work and how we measure ourselves. In our recent employee engagement survey, we increased our eNPS by a phenomenal 34 points. Our teams used words such as 'diverse', inclusive', 'respectful' and 'progressive' to describe our culture.
