Whilst we’re happy to hear that you enjoy your work and colleagues, some of your comments are concerning. We take equality very seriously at Peninsula and offer both Maternity and Paternity pay, as well as Parental/Shared Parental leave, time off for dependents and SSP, all in accordance with statutory provisions and regardless of gender. There are numerous resources on our internal network with advice around speaking with your line manager, medical appointments, risk assessments and reporting adverse incidents during pregnancy. We take all necessary steps to support employees during pregnancy and always compensate in accordance with the law, as well as offering a wide range of benefits and incentive schemes across departments within the wider group. If you’d like to clarify any of the above, I encourage you to speak with your line manager. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, we take any concerns from employees seriously and appreciate having the chance to address them.

Good morning, I'd like to start by saying that though we hope you choose to stay with the business, we respect your decision around a career move and we'd like to thank you for over 2 years of service and hard work. Though we're disappointed to read your opinion of the company, we foster a culture of care for our colleagues; we’re glad to hear that you were satisfied with your compensation, and we appreciate your support of the company over the years. Our management teams work closely with all our colleagues to help towards achieving KPIs and ensuring everyone has the resources they need to fulfil their role effectively. This is as well as running incentives across different departments and teams within the company. Regarding your comments about treatment of colleagues, this is simply not an experience that we recognise. All colleagues can, and are encouraged to discuss their work environment with their line manager. In addition to this, we regularly hold business-wide forums for colleagues to ask management open, anonymous questions and voice any concerns they might have. Linking into your comments around mental health and wellbeing – this is something we acknowledge is incredibly important in supporting our colleagues. The article posted to LinkedIn was an additional measure to support our colleagues and the wider community via the LinkedIn network. All colleagues are entitled to break and dinner time appropriate to the length of their shift. During the height of the pandemic, colleagues were encouraged to minimise excessive foot traffic through the building– but this was health and safety guidance to protect our colleagues. Colleagues can absolutely go offsite for breaks and lunch, and as cited in the article, even encouraged to as it can be beneficial for mental health and wellbeing. Regarding your statement around retention, we have a history of celebrating long-serving colleagues across the business. In addition, we run incentives and benefits for staff across different teams and departments for several years of service to the company. We celebrate only the success of our colleagues. If you could please get in touch with us, we can further discuss any of the comments you’ve made in your review further so we can dispel any misconceptions you may have about the company and our practices. Again – though we’re disappointed to read your opinion – we hope you’re successful in whatever you decide to do next, and we wish you all the best.

Good morning, Though we're pleased to hear that you were satisfied with your holidays and colleagues, we're disappointed to read some of the other comments in your review. Regarding your comments around working conditions for colleagues and our culture, this is simply not an experience that we recognise or stand for. We have a culture of support and care for our colleagues - mental health and wellbeing is something we acknowledge is incredibly important in supporting our colleagues. Additionally, we never encourage colleagues to take their home work with them. All colleagues can, and are encouraged to discuss their work environment with their line manager. In addition to this, we regularly hold business-wide forums for colleagues to ask management open, anonymous questions and voice any concerns they might have. Finally, we do encourage staff to post reviews giving their honest opinion - this is so we're constantly checking the pulse of colleague opinion and satisfaction with the business - a proactive step to ensure job satisfaction and mental health support on a wider scale. If you could please get in touch with us, we can further discuss any of the comments you’ve made in your review further so we can dispel any misconceptions you may have about the company and our practices. Again – though we’re disappointed to read your opinion – we wish you all the best in the future.

Thank you so much for your brilliant review! We're really pleased to hear that you've always felt supported and that you've been able to develop your skills and knowledge with us, this is the ethos that we live by as a company and we're glad to hear you've benefited as part of that.

Thanks so much for the feedback and glad to hear that you're enjoying the benefits of working for us. Our culture can indeed at times be a bit fast paced at times, thanks for your honesty there and for your help in shaping and maintaining our culture of care for our colleagues at Peninsula.
