Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that your experience working at Simply Business wasn't positive overall. We appreciate you mentioning that the role offered valuable insurance experience. We are, however, concerned about your characterization of the working environment and the feeling that management wasn't focused on the majority of employees. Providing a supportive, engaging, and fair workplace is extremely important to us, and we take all feedback about our culture seriously. If you would be open, we love to talk about this further.
