Risposta di Stanton House
2yThank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and concerns about our Company on Glassdoor.
We take all feedback seriously and value the opportunity to learn and improve. I am deeply disheartened to hear about your experience and concerns regarding our leadership team and strategic direction. We have had to make many very difficult decisions this year, so want to support the exceptional people who work at Stanton House in every way that we can. From your feedback, it’s clear that some of these decisions, and the rationale for them, need to be communicated more clearly. This year we have created many strategic groups to give individuals from across the business the opportunity to contribute to strategy and to have a voice in decision-making. We will continue to do more.
Your points on gender diversity are difficult to read. I believe that, whilst we still have so much to do (and we do have a gender imbalance in our senior team), we are dedicated to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace. Your feedback remains vital, and we will continue to take proactive measures to ensure that all employees, regardless of their gender, feel valued and supported. Last year we launched our Women in Stanton House (WISH) Forum, which was intended as a safe place for women in the business to support one another and break down gender bias. I will ensure that this remains a positive platform for bringing about change and equality within our business.
Regarding your comments on our HR team, we always endeavor to treat all issues raised with our HR team with the utmost discretion and confidentiality, and will look into this matter. We are dedicated to listening to feedback from our employees and ensuring that performance expectations are clear, transparent and understood, so we will continue to improve and address the issues you raise around this.
Your unhappy experience of working for Stanton House is regrettable, but we are genuinely committed to doing the right thing by all our people. We must continue to improve, and your feedback is important in helping make us a better business.
Neil Wilson, CEO, Stanton House
