Redundancy Decrease

Senior manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people working there, lots of talent and support

Cons

Changed redundancy from 6+ weeks per year at salary to statutory only which is 2 weeks per year at 600. No announcement so lots of long term employees only found out they had no safety net when told they were being let go. In the age of AI with increased redundancies this is a company showing a lack of value for employees.

Thank you for your feedback and for recognizing the talented and supportive people across the organization. We do want to clarify that the information shared regarding redundancy packages is not accurate. Our packages do provide more than the statutory minimum and are designed to align with market practices. We understand that changes in this area can be difficult. We remain focused on supporting employees through transitions and ensuring our actions align with our values. We appreciate you taking the time to share your perspective.
