Unsure where to start.....
- If you're looking for job security, this isn't the place for you. One minute you're flying, getting praised and feel really valued, the next minute you're 'let go' with 0 notice and no reason. No feedback given, no opportunity to work your notice and hand over to colleagues. I had a huge client text me because my emails weren't being delivered....because they'd immediately deleted my gmail account - incredibly unprofessional and an awkward position to be put in. If you've got bills to pay and a family to support, I encourage you to avoid this company like the plague. HR dealt with this incredibly badly too.
- For a company that works in the Diversity and Inclusion space, they're not very inclusive or diverse. It's actually funny how opposing they are of this. Difficult when you're talking to clients about the service and how it can help achieve their D&I objectives when near enough none (weren't any when I was there) of the practitioners are POC, queer, non-binary, trans etc.
- I was one of the 23 people to loose their job with immediate effect. I was on holiday, and they fired me over a 3 minute phone call. Can I add, I'd taken my laptop on holiday because I was too afraid of not hitting my target and missing opportunities. I was literally sat at my laptop, talking to clients, when I got the call.
- 0 work-life balance. Their product prevents burn out, but they're quite happy for their staff to be pulling all hours to hit their quota and complete work that's not within their job remit
- Trying to grow too fast. Soon to launch both in the US and internationally and the product/team aren't ready for it.
- Fake, cliquey culture. One minute you're flavour of the week, the next they're hiring new people who make you feel ostracised and like you're not good at your job. Very direct, personal comments are made about your character, making it a toxic place to work.
- They promise you the world but don't deliver. Their strap line is "supporting people in the moments that matter" but that couldn't be further from the truth. Complete hypocrisy
- Very good at appearing like they're successful and are one of the top places to work, but really, their data isn't very good which makes pitching difficult and they're clearly going through some financial issues as they had to sack 23 people on the spot. Not only this, but they then re-advertised for multiple roles 3 weeks later.... imagine how that feels to see your role become available again. Something fishy's going on here....
- No structure from senior management which made it very hard to hit target, and when you try to ask for more help/seek advice in areas that you can improve, you're threatened with a PIP
- New hires in management aren't nice/knowledgeable of their role which makes your workload difficult to complete because they're all over the shop dictating this and that
- The company delete negative glassdoor reviews to make themselves look better - watch out for this! They also ask their employees to write fake positive reviews. Complete unauthentic behaviour.
- Underpaid in our last wage - promised they'd look after us and not short change us, but deducted a HUGE amount for the days we could've worked our notice but weren't able to. Again, just another immoral stab in the back.
Whole heartedly let down by Peppy. They're not the company that they appear to be on paper, and you unfortunately have to be let go/bullied by one of the founders to see them for what they really are. Couldn't advise not working here more.
