Pros

Free snacks and soft drinks Nice-looking office environment

Cons

This company is a nightmare to work for. Employees are overworked, micromanaged, and underpaid, with no recognition or appreciation whatsoever. The management is completely useless—there’s no support, no guidance, and they keep everyone in the dark about important business decisions. The pay is a joke, especially considering the heavy workload dumped on us while senior managers remain arrogant, out of touch, and show no concern for employee well-being. There is absolutely no work-life balance. The workload is overwhelming because they hire too many salespeople and not nearly enough service staff, leading to constant stress and burnout. To top it off, they won’t let you take more than two weeks of annual leave, giving pathetic excuses about being understaffed. This place is toxic from top to bottom. Advice to management: To senior managers and C-level executives, start hiring more staff, pay your employees what they’re worth, acknowledge your service teams, and send them on trips like you do for sales. Reward the people who actually take care of your clients.

Hello & than you for your feedback. It would appear that your time with us has soured your view of our company. We take your review seriously although your review covers a number of areas and topics which are not consistent with that of our workforce. Our salaries are on par with the market, and we constantly are reviewing this in line with market salaries. To reward our service teams, we have Super Service Awards with 10 employees per month acknowledged and rewarded financially ($1000 and a day off) for delivering our service - this means we can reward more people in our services teams across the year. I would welcome the opportunity to unpack your review further. I can be reached at feedback@peninsula-au.com and look forward to hearing from you. Regards Mary @ Peninsula ANZ
