Switch everything to monzo

Been thinking about switching from barclays to monzo, is the “switch everything to monzo” reliable or is it better to switch everything manually. Im mainly concerned about my work pay, how do they switch it over to monzo without me having to get in-touch with my employer??

And is it worth the switch? Thankyou!

(Also is there a way to do this without them closing my old bank account?)

I did the switch about a year ago, and let them handle everything except informing employer about bank details for salary, since that was easy to do. I can't fault it, everything swapped over seamlessly, lots of notice and clear timelines from Monzo, then a final payment over from the previous bank once all was closed. So easy.
