Cons

Bullying tolerated as BAU, gender discrimination like never seen before, political favourites are the only ones who thrive. You're either in with the old boys club or you're exited (stealth firing or mass firing) if you disagree with the In Crowd. There are no female VPs or Directors in Tech and zero growth potential for the few female and non-binary who were not run out the door by the abject sexism and discrimination. Benefits are minimal, interest in the actual wellbeing and development of staff does not exist. You end up being overworked and with zero opportunities to grow or learn.

Pros

- Great pay - Nice and fun colleagues

Cons

- The Executive team believes they have the best intentions but never listen to what the employees want - Priorities change every quarter, projects and teams get shuffled and destroyed on the regular - There is no sense of ownership as everything is questioned and might be reprioritised - The entire Higher management team is males only - There is little to no focus on the employees experience and progression, the focus is always on the customer and how to make more money quicker - Work from home is a very upsetting subject to the exec team. They are putting a lot of pressure on people to return for 3 days a week but offer little understanding

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We value your input and take your concerns seriously. Here's how we are addressing the points you've raised: Executive Team Listening to Employees: We acknowledge the importance of listening to our employees and are actively working to improve this. Our regular Q&A sessions with the executive team are designed to foster transparency and create a safe space for employees to share their opinions. We strive to ensure that all feedback is heard and respected. Frequent Changes and Team Restructuring: As a fast-paced company experiencing significant growth, changes in priorities and team structures are sometimes necessary. We understand this can be disruptive and are committed to improving communication around these changes to provide a better sense of stability and ownership for our employees. Sense of Ownership: We aim to create an autonomous environment with ample opportunities for growth and development. We are working on ways to better maintain project stability while making necessary adjustments to align with our evolving goals. Diversity in Higher Management: We recognize the need for greater diversity within our higher management team. We are actively working on improvement programs and specific initiatives to promote diverse talent within the company. Recently, we have promoted internal talent and are continually seeking to enhance our diversity efforts. Focus on Employee Experience and Progression: Our structured career paths and pay-for-performance culture are designed to support employee progression. We are continuously looking at ways to improve the employee experience and ensure that our focus extends beyond customer satisfaction to include the well-being and development of our employees. Work from Home and Return to Office Policy: We understand the concerns about the return to office policy. At Checkout, we strongly believe in-person collaboration provides more opportunities for our employees to come together to collaborate and build meaningful relationships which creates a better sense of belonging, connection, and community. That's why we ask employees to come to the office three days a week Addressing Employee Issues and Focus on Minority Groups: We are committed to addressing the issues employees face and improving processes to tackle accumulated problems effectively. Our commitment to diversity includes adapting processes and supporting internal communities to ensure all minority groups feel valued and supported. We are also bringing in specific programs to enhance our focus on diversity and inclusion.
