What employees are saying about Leeds City Council

  • Best thing

    Flexi-time (if you log it correctly, some people got into arguments about whether they did this), some hybrid working

    Worst thing

    The culture was repulsive. Mixed signals from mangers, ableism, nepotism. As with anything, those you hear from are miserable in their jobs and rather than do something about it they just roam around trying to make everyone else miserable.
