Pros

Growing company and international presence

Cons

Management do not care about employees welfare especially regarding work-life balance. The company culture/attitude is all about what’s good for them and not what’s fair to their employees , in all aspects, starting with the recruitment process. I was asked to supply a copy of my passport, address and copies of payslips (?!!) before I was even made an informal offer! When I pushed back about the payslips the internal recruiter suddenly did not require them so was clearly just trying it on. All companies to some extent try to keep salaries low but most don’t resort to such dodgy practices to achieve it...

Thank you for taking the time to write your review and we are sorry that you have not had a good experience with Thunes. We are concerned to read your comments as our management team thoroughly cares about their employees. In terms of work life balance we are increasing our headcount significantly as well as investing in a lot of technology to help automate internal processes as we go through the rapid growth we are currently experiencing. Our standard recruitment process does not require payslips and certainly not before any offers are made - this would have been an error on our side and apologies as that is not how we operate.

Pros

Holiday annual rollover, hybrid working options.

Cons

Company aware but not assertive toward resolving bullying across the workplace. Very high turnover in the business. Unfortunately staff are mismanaged and salaries do not align with competitive market rates for similar roles elsewhere. Since its rapid growth, the company focuses on celebrating and championing more senior staff, and not the employees that are go the extra mile and work around the clock.

We were sorry to read your review and appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. We take any form of harassment, including bullying, extremely seriously. We have robust policies, anonymous surveys and a confidential hotline available to all employees if they feel they cannot approach HR or a senior manager. We recognise we can and should always do more and we will continue to bring these policies and the various channels for raising concerns to the attention of our employees. We also appreciate your feedback on our compensation packages. We firmly believe that we offer attractive and market-competitive packages (including bonuses and other perks such as a wellness stipend) however we will continue to review our packages, ensuring we remain competitive in each of the markets we operate in Recognising the hard work of our employees is essential and something we celebrate on a regular basis via our monthly Shout Outs and our exciting ThuneSTARS program, offering opportunities for managers to recognise outstanding performance but also for peer-to-peer recognition. As a fast growing business we will continue to further develop our opportunities for recognition and we appreciate your feedback on this. If you are a current employee and you feel comfortable doing so, we would love to discuss this with you in more detail so we can address your concerns more directly. We invite you to reach out to your HRBP if you are willing to do so. Feedback is always appreciated and will help us to maintain an exciting and safe work environment.
