Welcome Break Response

Thank you for your review, and apologies it has taken so long for us to respond. Glad to hear your feedback about good pay, your team mates, and good managers whilst you worked for us. Sorry to hear about your experiences with more senior managers. We have done a lot of work at South Mimms since your review and the people experience has much improved with a change of leadership at the top. I would hope if you ever decided to join us again that you would see a huge difference in the support given to the teams there. Thanks again for leaving us a review - Alexandra Walker Head of Talent
