Pros

Bonuses paid out for the past couple of years. Company events are well funded and elaborate. Thats is about it.

Cons

CONSTANT turn over, people leave or get left go, which leads to constant in consistency. Each new person has their own "bright" ideas of how things should be done. Upper management not supportive of junior staff. Politics in head office. Certain depts are either swamped with work while others are twiddling their thumbs with minimal to do. Too much time spent doing reports that the head office barely uses...countless hours wasted doing reports. IMO, the recent positive reviews for the company were probably prompted by HR who only recently became aware of this site.

Thanks for your review. We're really sorry to hear that you didn't feel like you had a good experience during your time at FitFlop. We do try and capture everyone's feedback when they leave us by doing an exit interview, and the good news is that your experience isn't shared by everyone. We are working hard to keep improving, especially in how we support our teams - the senior team have just returned from a development programme with a leadership focus, we had an amazing well-being launch (free massages, picnics, smoothies and goody bags all round!) and Summer Fridays (early finishes to make the most of the summer) have just kicked off for this year. We're really open to getting feedback, and will continue to encourage people to tell us what they think, either while they're with us (so we can work together to make things better), during exit interviews, or on here after people have moved on to the next challenge. Once again, sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your time with us, we'll keep working to be better (it's what we do every day) and we hope you find a role where you can be happy.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, it's great to hear you've had a positive experience. Thank you for sharing feedback on our communications - it's something we've been working really hard on and we're now doing monthly Flash meetings and quarterly updates, led by our Senior Leadership Team and CEO which have been received very well.

Pros

NONE. I wish I never worked here.

Cons

This is the clickiest place I have ever worked. This was made even worse by the daily bullying, including by management. One group of employees would frequently and openly make fun of those who were not part of their clique to the point of harassment. If there was a concern with an employee's work they would be reprimanded in the middle of the open office environment. It was also common in my department to hire for one position but then make employees work in other areas as well with no additional pay. The level of disrespect here is astonishing. I got out of there as soon as I possibly could.
