Welcome Break Response

Hi and thanks for your review. I appreciate you wrote this some time ago but wanted to acknowledge your feedback. Great to hear that you liked our discount scheme, but disappointing to hear you felt you were poorly managed, with a lack of training. Since you wrote your review we have had a change of management team at Birchanger and feel the employee experience is much more positive. If there was anything you wanted to talk to us about please email Employee.Relations@WelcomeBreak.co.uk. Thanks Alexandra Walker Head of Talent
