I should have written this review years ago. When I started working at Elexon it was a positive experience. I got on well with my team and enjoyed the work that I was doing. However, I soon began to notice that the team was quite siloed. I also found it difficult working with management who were often so busy that I couldn't ask for help / advice. I wanted to do well throughout my probationary period, but unfortunately I did make quite a few mistakes. I really needed help and asked for help whenever I could. However, because management were so busy, they could barely spare me any time. I started working early, late and over the weekends to try and get back on track but I just couldn't prevent this downward spiral. I ended up dreading coming into work. Elexon did have a work buddy program but it seemed that this program was only available to people that had already passed their probationary period. Things all came to a head at the end of my probation after six months of employment. I had a meeting with management in the morning where we agreed that things hadn't gone that great and that they were considering extending my probation. However, next thing I knew on the same day, I was put in another meeting with management and HR where I was informed me that I had failed my probationary period and that I would need to leave the office immediately. I was quite shocked. I told them that I had tried so hard to do well but nothing I said would sway their decision. The worst part was where I was escorted to my desk to collect my things in front of the entire team. Nobody would speak to me or even look at me. It was absolutely humiliating and I will never forget it. Looking back it it now, I do admit that the role and I were not a great fit. However, I can't forgive Elexon for how things ended and the lack of support I received whilst working there.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and candid account of your experience. It is positive to hear that your early time at Elexon, your team relationships, and exposure to the energy sector provided value. I am genuinely sorry to read how your experience progressed, particularly regarding the support you received and the way your probation outcome was handled. We take this type of feedback seriously, particularly where it relates to support during probation and how colleagues are treated at critical moments. Your comments on siloed working, limited management availability, and the need for more structured support, including regular check-ins and earlier intervention, are well made. These are critical areas for us, and we are continuing to strengthen our approach to onboarding, regular one-to-ones, and early performance support to ensure colleagues receive the guidance they need from the outset. I am particularly concerned to hear how your exit was managed, and I am sorry that this was your experience. Thank you again for your honesty. Feedback of this nature is invaluable in helping us identify where we need to improve and ensuring we take meaningful action. Brett Buchanan Head of Resourcing
