MHR Reviews

Thanks for the really detailed review, it’s clear that you had a great experience at MHR. It’s good to hear that we are getting it right when it comes to culture, development and opportunities for progression.

I appreciate the honest feedback regarding the responsiveness of the management team and I’ll ensure that this is passed on to the relevant people so that we can look at ways to improve in this area.

I hope you enjoy your time in London and that you find an equally rewarding role.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We would agree that we have some amazing and talented people working at MHR and there are lots of opportunities for employees to develop their careers further as we continue to expand globally.

We provide many training and development courses, through our People First platform, to aid personal development. In 2019 we are looking to expand this further still with a blend of face-to-face and online options to support individual learning styles. We’ll also be launching a fully revised mentoring program which will be open to all employees and a structured Management Excellence programme.

We look forward to supporting you in what I am confident will be a blossoming career with MHR.... MoreLess

In response to your comments, MHR, in line with Glassdoor’s policies, does not post fake reviews or have posts removed, unless of course they are in direct breach of their guidelines. We do appreciate that not everyone will like working at MHR, but there are many that do and leave positive reviews without us asking for them.... MoreLess

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Hard work is rewarded and celebrated at MHR, whether at department or company level. There are also plenty of opportunities and support for those people who wish to progress within the business. Some of our best sales people for example started life at MHR on our Service Desk. We encourage all of our people to take responsibility for their own development with support from their Manager and the wider business and have a generous training budget to help facilitate this. In relation to wellbeing and work/life balance, I can assure you that we take your comments seriously. Our work is demanding – as is any business that has ambitious goals – but we also appreciate that in order to be at your best, there needs to be a balance. If you felt that this was not the case, you should have raised the issue with your line manager or HR Business Partner.

We wish you well in your future career.

Thank you taking time to leave this review. We work hard, and continue to do so, to create an environment where every employee can succeed and as you state, we have had many employees return to us . MHR is a place where people can further their career and we actively promote self-development. Our focus is on growing the business that provides the platform for us to continually invest in all areas of our business, including our people, and I am glad you recognise that.

I would be happy to discuss any ideas you have around the points you have raised.

Thank you

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the great staff, working environment and products we have here at MHR. However for a number of reasons I cannot agree with your statements around management comments and lack of support for staff.

MHR encourages all employees to make a positive contribution to the business and we continue to work hard to create an environment where everyone can thrive and progress. In addition managers and employees hold regular check in’s where there is the opportunity to discuss performance and career progression, alongside wellbeing. These discussion are centred on performance and the employees ability to do the job and the contribution they make to the business not whether their “face fits”.

In response to your ‘cliques’ comment, I would like to assure you that is certainly not the case, we promote our people solely on merit – do a good job and you will be rewarded. There are many people at MHR who have had the opportunity to progress their career here through sheer hard work.

MHR is a fast paced and agile environment which encourages its employees to take responsibility for their career and work together as a team which perhaps was not an environment that was suitable for you. That said we wish you well for your future career.

Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your experience at MHR. It is a shame you didn’t take the time to raise your concerns with me or your HR Business Partner, so we could resolve these for you. We make no apologies for the fast-paced nature of MHR, or expecting the best from our employees. My job, along with the leadership team is to create an environment to allow every employee to succeed and provide a platform to develop their careers in return for their efforts.

I would like to point out that we have not recruited 200 people in the last six months, this would account to a third of our total headcount. In addition we do not tolerate bullying of any form and when reported, it is investigated and dealt with promptly. We have a lot of happy employees who have worked for us a long time, or have returned to us from other companies. It is not unreasonable to believe that we have employees who share their experiences on Glassdoor.

It is clear that working at MHR was not right for you and we are sorry it didn’t work out. We wish you well in your future career.

Thank you for your feedback and we totally agree that here at MHR we indeed have some fantastic, bright and fun people who work with our excellent product(s). As your comments also testify we offer our employees great opportunities and career progression during their time with us.
I am sorry to hear that you believe that your leaving MHR employment was handled badly and would welcome your feedback on the process if you did not provide this to your HR Business partner at the time as part of our standard exit process. We have had a number of employees who have subsequently returned to the MHR family after leaving who have made no comment in respect to the exit process they experienced so I would be interested to understand which part of the leaving process you believe was not as you might have expected under the circumstances. If you would like to contact me directly I would be happy to discuss this further.... MoreLess
