Welcome Break Response

Thanks very much for leaving a review, and thanks for your comment about discounts. Regarding your feedback around management culture, I'm really sorry to read this. I can imagine it's frustrating to not see any improvement after you've taken the time to get in touch. I would genuinely appreciate you contacting me directly to offer some specific feedback if you have the appetite to do that? Thank you in advance Justin Morrison // Head of Talent & Resourcing
