An obligation to our staff
We pick our beans fresh then nurture and care for them so they bloom
The serious stuff
At the Bean we think we've got a healthy balance of free love and a serious office environment. Our offices are filled with laughter but employees know when to stop.
If our staff need compassionate, sickness or mat/paternity leave, we do our best to meet their needs and ensure they rejoin the safe, happy environment they left when they are ready to come back to work.
The Bean is a diverse pod full of all shapes colours and ages and that's how we like it.
Newbs (New Beans)
A Bean welcome is a happy one. Newbs (New Beans) are given a warm reception of balloons and treats on their first day and have a designated buddy that works on a different team to give them guidance and advice in their first fortnight on the job. A buddy takes the Newb out for lunch on their first day, informs them of the company's policies and shows them around the office and surrounding area.
A day in the life of a bean
Birthdays are fun, and we want to make sure that our staff enjoy themselves so give them a day off after the celebration. We also give bonus days off for volunteering and charity work.
Our offices
In the UK we spend more time at work than we do with our loved ones so we endeavour to make our work environment as comfortable and relaxed as possible. Our staff sit on the most ergonomic chairs, eat the breakfast we provide and can lounge on our sun drenched roof terrace if the weather permits. We make sure coming into work is a joy rather than a chore and that's how we get the best from our team.
BB Social - Our nights out
Bean nights out are bundles of fun and we do them as much as we can. We've had some brilliant award ceremonies to attend recently and have brought the entire team to some so they can see what their hard work has achieved.
Standards are high at BB HQ but targets are realistic. We've always hit them and treat our staff to a yearly trip away for doing so.
