Reaktion von Forward Financing
2yThank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us as a former employee. We appreciate your comments and are glad to hear that you valued the colleagues you worked with, as well as our benefits and flexible work environment. Taking care of our people is a top priority for us and is fundamental to our people-first culture.
While it's true that we are a for-profit business, we are committed to balancing our business goals with the well-being of our employees, recognizing that both are essential for success. In terms of our leadership, we continually refine our criteria and processes for promotions to ensure they are equitable and effective. At Forward, we value leaders who demonstrate humility, strong communication skills, problem-solving abilities, and the capacity to empower and build strong teams. We have also recently hired a leader to build out our Learning & Development function to support the growth of our team.
Since our inception, Forward has been headquartered in Boston with a robust subsidiary in the Dominican Republic. To clarify, this is not outsourcing; we have over 200 employees in the US and over 200 employees in the DR, all operating as one team. Any adjustments to our team are made for reasons that do not involve reducing headcount in one location to increase it in another. We are committed to being an employee-centric company, and our low voluntary attrition rate reflects this commitment.
Thanks again for sharing your thoughts. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.
