Pros

Good overall package with commission included There is some opportunity to move roles

Cons

Clicky environment and will you be placed aside if you don’t participate in it as you will be seen by the company as “one of us” rather than trying to help you integrate in different ways. Multiple try outs during essential time for sales. When you comment on it you will be gaslighted into the stats and trends you have brought up aren’t affecting sales. Weeks later into a new a month, a communication is sent out advising targets were being reduced for the current month.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are glad to see that you enjoyed the overall compensation package at Simply Business. We are also happy to hear you say there is opportunity for internal mobility, we value our employees' growth and development. We are saddened to hear that you feel the environment was cliquey as we believe that our unique culture – built on a sense of collective community – is an important part of our success to date, and helps us do our best for the customers that we serve. We also offer a diverse range of inclusive ways to participate in our culture at SB. We value and are grateful for your constructive feedback regarding your experience with coaching. We'd be very receptive to learning more about this, and would urge you to reach out to peopleops@simplybusiness.co.uk to discuss this in more detail.
