Thank you for the taking the time to provide feedback and give us a review. It's great to hear you enjoy working for Welcome Break but sorry to hear you feel there are limited career progression. I would recommend you speak to your line manager as there are some fantastic opportunities, alternatively check out the internal career opportunities on Drive, you can also set up a job alert so you are kept informed of new and exciting role. Thanks
