Advice to Management

I have loved every second at Peninsula. I have never worked for an organisation where so many people are genuinely invested in my success. There is not 1 person you would feel you couldn't call on for help or advice. Peninsula provide you with all the tools you need to be successful. I have developed so much in the last 12 months. The training & support is on-going & fantastic. Huge earning opportunities for... those that truly apply themselves. I joined a long established team in the North West, my manager & colleagues all made me feel part of the team & included me from the very beginning. My manager has been with Peninsula for many years, he is very supportive & lets us think for our selves & bring new ideas to the table for us all to benefit from. Our manager encourages us as a team to regularly share best practice & we all work together really well. Joining Peninsula has been life-changing. The people, managers, directors, colleagues, products, ethos, standards, support, events have all been fantastic & I look forward to a long career here at Peninsula.

Pros

None - absolutely nothing at all

Cons

Disgraceful management, the sales dept is riddled with bullying managers - telesales guys are treated like dog dirt. Field guys are also treated with no respect at all. Don't be fooled by the complimentary comments on here, staff are "told" to write nice things so the company can be awarded Best Places to Work.

Advice to Management

You should be utterly ashamed of your actions...… karma - someone somewhere will give you what you deserve.

Pros

Nice team to work with, good building, ability to manage workload how I wanted to

Cons

Old-fashioned and corporate culture, not very employee-focused, lack of flexibility, benefits are superficial and exaggerated in application process

Advice to Management

Be honest about the culture - it isn't for everyone and while some may thrive in a more corporate environment, it can have a negative effect on those who don't. Also be more understanding of people's health problems and don't try to use guilt tactics to stop them from taking sick days. Yes having an EAP is great, but that's not going to get rid of long term illnesses or flu symptoms.

Pros

if you get into the right clique you will make lots of money but u will go hero to zero very quickly so make the most of it as it wont last.

Cons

opportunities are given on a strictly " who is in favour " basis not based on ability just if your face fits -the working atmosphere is toxic with bullying and persecution very evident on a day to day basis if you can take the regular dressings down you will do well .

Advice to Management

try being more respectful to staff they are employed to do a job how about trusting them to just get on with it -drop the micro management such an over rated unproductive form of management style. understand that not all staff fit into the robots you are hoping to produce they have personality feelings sensitivities that you cannot destroy as much as you try
