Depop Response
4yThank you for taking the time to reflect on your experiences of working at Depop; we’re really disappointed to hear that your overall impressions haven’t been more positive.
We’re committed to being a workplace that champions everyone, and where ambitious and passionate individuals can thrive. We’ve grown a lot in the last few years, and alongside this we have brought more and more focus and resources into supporting and developing our people and strengthening our diversity, equality and inclusion strategy. This includes ensuring that our hiring practices - at every level - are fair, unbiased and represent a diverse funnel of candidates. We have also recently refreshed our performance review cycle to ensure regular and consistent touchpoints around progression and reward at all levels of the business.
Since our founding moment, diversity, equity and inclusion has been integral to who we are as a business. The ethos of Depop is to celebrate individuality and difference - and over the last few years, as we’ve grown, we’ve worked consistently to extend this into a clear DEI vision and ensure our ethos is woven through how we operate day to day. This has included hiring a full-time Head of DEI, rolling out specialised DEI training for managers and leadership, and building a roadmap for improving representation and inclusion amongst our communities.
The People Team encourages individuals to confidentially come forward to raise any concerns they may have in their teams at any point. Even though you no longer work at Depop, your opinion is still important to us. If you would like to discuss anything in further detail, please don’t hesitate to reach out to people@depop.com.
