    AI summary of recent reviews
    Employees consistently praise the quality of their colleagues, describing them as helpful, knowledgeable, and supportive. The flexible work arrangements, including 9-day fortnights, along with competitive salaries and benefits, are highly valued. Staff appreciate supportive line management and the opportunity to work on meaningful, challenging projects that make a real impact.

    However, there are some potential challenges, including complex systems and processes that can be difficult to navigate, and an organisational structure that takes time to understand. Some employees have noted concerns about senior leadership engagement, whilst heavy workloads and resourcing constraints can create pressure. The pace of change in certain areas can be slow, with some bureaucratic processes still in place.
