Thanks so much for the positive feedback. Future as a whole has been focused on addressing diversity within our entire organisation in the last year. We've established a Diversity and Inclusion forum to encourage constant feedback from everyone. There's been an ongoing effort to evaluate all of our company policies to ensure we're hiring from a more inclusive stance and including more BIPOC in marketing and presentation materials. Change like this never happens as fast as we'd like, but it is happening and the process is constant and active.

Lots of interesting brands and content opportunities

Your job is never safe. They will always look to replace you with cheaper resources.

Future Response

There has never once been an effort to replace anyone on any of our teams with cheaper resources. We value gifted work, and reward it appropriately. Future has a continuing focus on education and personal improvement for everyone in the company, as well as financial incentives when the company as a whole does well. It's unfortunate you had such a negative experience, but these accusations are without merit.
