Pros

- New office - Monthly commission available

Cons

- Ironically they hired a Chief People Officer (who doesn't spend any time with the people), invested in HR resources and 'progression plans' but their attrition rate quickly rocketed. - Constantly changing commission rules in order to pay less out to employees (due to needing to save cost). - The management had a fair few court cases with both ex-employees and customers for various reasons. - Due to this they don't like to keep many employees for more than 2 years so that individuals don't have the statutory right to claim unfair dismissal anymore. - Sells the fact that employees are quite autonomous and provide high quality over quantity leads but one of the managers to go around with a clipboard, forcing everyone to make more calls akin to a call centre. - If they like someone who isn't very good at the core job, they promote them to programme managers which would be quite an unnecessary job role if they have good BDMs. - Quote from former client "Despite the mild manner of the CEO, it's clear that she is money hungry. I felt that I was being conned and now it's clear that I was being conned". - They put on an impressive show to customers with wining and dining but behind the scenes, it's just a room full of over-worked and stressed telephone monkeys.

We take all feedback and reviews regarding Clarify very seriously and as a strong values led business I was really concerned by some of the comments you have made, particularly those relating to our ethics and conduct. Having worked at Clarify for over 3 years I have not experienced or witnessed any of the issues you have raised. We have also shared this review with the wider business and have had many individual emails back to say how disappointed they were with what has been said, and how this is absolutely not the business they recognise. I would be keen to discuss this feedback further, please reach out on kjoyce@clarifybd.com

Pros

none that come to mind

Cons

Micro Management, little to no guidance from 'leadership', people in 'leadership' positions do not show the capacity to hold such roles, very patch-like atmosphere, peer pressure to attend bars, poor culture, to my knowledge Oliver Davies is still employed there...so..not great
