Exciting & rewarding place to work - Recensione dipendente - Design, Brand & Creative Manager presso Solent Group

There are capable, hardworking people across teams who genuinely want to contribute. The previous Managing Director at Go Superfoods was professional and supportive, and showed that good leadership was possible within the business.

I worked at Go Superfoods, which later merged into the Solent Group. Unfortunately, the merger did not improve anything. The same issues remain, and in some cases worsened. Leadership across both Go Superfoods and Solent Group is ego-driven, poorly aligned, and lacks a clear understanding of the business. There is a strong culture of blame, where employees are belittled, second-guessed, and held responsible for failures caused by unclear strategy and weak decision-making at the top. Following the departure of the previous CEO and the Go Superfoods MD, direction deteriorated significantly. Creativity is discouraged, loyalty is not valued, and high-performing, hardworking employees are pushed out, while manipulative or low-impact individuals are protected. The environment creates constant stress, shifting expectations, and zero psychological safety. Over time, this has a serious negative impact on mental health, confidence, and motivation. Rebranding and merging did not address the root problems. Solent Group is no different in how people are managed and treated.
