Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience working for us. It’s important for us to support everyone's desire for development and growth. We encourage you to discuss your career aspirations with your manager as well as to use the tools that we have available, for example the Personal Growth Budget. We understand the challenges that come with maintaining a healthy work-life balance. We've partnered with our Mental Health Advocacy Group and Talent Development Team to build a comfortable space where employees can address challenges and equip themselves with tools to recognize and avoid burnout. This includes workshops, anonymous Q&As, and access to private, individual 1:1 sessions with a psychologist through our partnership with nilo.health. We encourage you to use these resources. We also understand that it can be difficult to address some issues directly with your manager. At GetYourGuide, we want to make everyone feels heard. Our Peakon Monthly Survey is a good opportunity to share anonymous feedback. Our HR team and our Employee Representative Group (ERG) are also available for confidential conversations. We wish you all the best. GetYourGuide.
