Pros

Incredible, talented people, nice offices that were recently redecorated. Unlimited paid holiday. A lot of changes have been made to improve the culture and reduce overall pessimism among employees.

Cons

No job security, no potential to develop professionally beyond the role you're in, pay is below industry standard

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of Future. We believe our people are our biggest asset, as such it’s important to us that we can share some great perks with them such as uncapped annual leave and modern and comfortable surroundings. We’re proud to confirm that we have just welcomed a Head of L&D to the People & Culture team, we look forward to rolling out several initiatives to develop our employees and Managers alike.

Pros

- Great talent joined with some of the recent acquisitions - Work/Life balance is okay

Cons

- Print shop mindset is still alive and kicking. - Zero innovation. - No growth opportunities. - Fear mongering and top-town management approach. - Wrong people making important decisions. Bad calls are made across the board. - People are treated like cattle. No respect for anybody, no matter what role or level. - Disorganized and mismanaged.

Pros

- Unlimited holiday (although I know some managers do cap it) - Fairly flexible working environment and working from home is an option is agreed with manager - 3 month sabbatical at 5 years of service if wanted - Share incentive plan - Living wage employer - Monthly munchies (free lunch once a month) - Christmas closure - Yearly bonus if we hit our targets (which we have for the last two years)

Cons

- IT systems are not robust enough for the size - Still not on Adobe CC despite being such a large company - Some of the teams are disjointed from the rest of the company, with so many acquisitions it takes a lot of time to get people to work in a more standardised way
