Rash decision making during the pandemic has resulted in 500+ redundancies across the business. Very little strategic thinking sat behind the restructure and the furlough scheme is being used to fund those 500+ redundancies. Massive over spending on Level 3 Heads of Roles, unnecessary projects, refurbishment of offices and ridiculously high staff expenses has led over time to the massive headcount reduction under the disguise of COVID. What was a great business is now a business that has stepped back in time, has a totally disengaged workforce and those that have secured a role are just there until they can secure a new job elsewhere. Panic at the start of COVID by the ELT, the owner and the Vice Chairman resulted in crazy decision making that has led to people losing their lively hood. There is no loyalty from those that are staying. This isn’t an organisation that values or recognises the effort and hard work of their current and previous staff and it isn’t an organisation that anyone who is good at what they do should join.
