Peninsula Reviews

Pros

I have worked for Peninsula for over 5 years in a number of different roles in departments across the organisation. I can honestly say I have never come across a Company so committed to not only providing a fantastic service, but also to looking after their employees.

I joined the sales team on floor 6 18 months ago after working within the advice and documentation departments for a number of years, and I am so happy that I made this career move. The atmosphere is fantastic and all of the Management team are so encouraging as they want to see each and every employee strive to achieve the best that they can. Employees are truly happy to come to work here each day and it is clear to see that reasons behind this relate to not only the fantastic rewards on offer, but also because of the constant support provided by the Management team.

There is an extremely generous commission structure in place which is really achievable if you work hard and are dedicated to the success of the business. There are also regular incentives to encourage employees to achieve the best that they can. Those who work hard are really rewarded here.

My life has been changed completely since joining the sales department, I have been able to purchase a beautiful first home and a brand new car, and I now have so much financial freedom and feel so secure.

At our recent sales conference we had the big prize draw based on an incentive that had been running over the past year. Each employee in the sales team won raffle tickets throughout the year leading up to the draw based on performance and other incentives that ran. The prize was £20,000! Life changing money! I am so thrilled to say that I won!! This is just another way the company looks to reward hard work. Hard work really does pay off!

I am so excited to continue building my career within Peninsula and progress further within the sales department to continue to achieve financial freedom and security.

Advice to Management

Keep up the great work!

Pros

Fantastic scheme for new graudates. You must be prepared to learn and give 100% as its very fast paced but you recieve so much training and support. Although the training weeks can be intense due to there being so much to learn, every session is engaging and they have all been really interesting. I found that most people who work for Peninsula have worked here for year and years and all seem really happy in their roles which is a good sign for newbies. Considering your not office based you dont feel alone at all and when you are in the office everyone is friendly and approachable. The support from the managers and consultants has been brilliant, they are always checking if we are ok, if we are enjoying it so far or need any extra help. The consultant role is so varied and every visit is interesting. The week goes so quickly and im loving it so far!

Pros

I have had various jobs in boring, bureaucratic places with average colleagues. Peninsula is the absolute opposite, it is exciting, always changing, challenging with a quality team who always want to be the best they can be. The knowledge in the team is second to none and we are always learning and evolving. The team really care about one another and the client and the team feels like a tight unit. The business has gone from strength and strength and you can feel a real buzz as it grows but also as it evolves in its leadership style and mentality.

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you are doing. It really feels like the management team has evolved in approach of late as the workplace changes and that is brilliant.

Pros

Flexibility, reasonable salary, good benefits

Advice to Management

Nothing to add

Pros

Since joining the business 5 years ago I have been given genuine autonomy to grow an build a key department within the business. The MD and Directors have been hugely supportive in listening and helping to implement new ideas and ways of working. I have been promoted twice in recognition of the work me and my team have undertaken and the business have been fantastic in allowing me to maintain a work life balance by working part time without this ever impacting my ability to grow within the business.

Advice to Management

I would say to further enhance some elements of our overall benefits package, but the board have listened to this and are currently implementing a number of new benefits - thank you for listening !

Pros

I have worked for the company 14 years and can genuinely say there has never been a dull moment.
Plenty of challenges though, but that's the thing that gets me out of bed in the morning!
Great to be involved and contributing to a business that is clearly valued by it's customers and the growth of the Group is certainly testament to this.

Pros

In just over five years working within Peninsula, I have gone from an entry level sales role to an Associate Director of the business.

Whilst movement upwards in any business is in part down to the hard work and dedication of the individual, the senior management team, directors and Peter, have an ethos, culture and passion that enables development of all its staff.

I am very fortunate and proud to be a product of that culture, it has changed my professional and personal life.

During my development, I have always been extremely well rewarded financially for my own aforementioned hard work and dedication but have also been fortunate to visit amazing destinations around the world on incentive trips.

Advice to Management

Please don't lose that ethos and passion for developing staff.
