1moThank you for your feedback. It's great to hear that you are enjoying working with great colleagues and getting to work on some of our very exciting deep tech innovation projects.
We do recognise that we've seen some changes at the leadership level and some have, regrettably, been in quite close succession. Sometimes this is unavoidable and based on personal circumstances outside of the organisation's control. We are working hard to ensure we keep focused on working as a team, ensuring excellent delivery and supporting people to work at their best through this period of leadership transition.
We also take on board your comment about career pathways in the organisation. Following an organisation re-design that took place last year, we do need to refresh some of our career pathways and so to assure you this is on our work plan for the new financial year. We are seeing great evidence of progression in the business - in FT25-26, 14% of employees were promoted and we have many further examples of people being seconded across the business, thereby developing their skills and expanding their experience with us. Please keep an eye on our Workable site for opportunities that may interest you, or speak to your manager and the L&D (Talent) team about your career aspirations.
We'd like to counter that "so many people are leaving" - indeed, over the last year, we saw out lowest level of voluntary turnover since the Covid years - well below our expected level. We do review exit interviews and have not identified a common theme about which to be concerned.
We would like to understand more about your feeling that policies are being inconsistently applied - please take the opportunity to raise this with your Manager or functional SLT member, with our Employee Network or with the People team so that we can understand this better and can address your concerns.
