Sapienza Response
7yDear Anonymous,
We’re pleased you used the opportunities to develop your professional competences at a variety of courses Sapienza offered to you. Indeed, we place a lot of emphasis on employee development and have a dedicated Training Academy, with the expectation to challenge them and help qualify for increasingly advanced positions as they grow. Contrary to what you say, Sapienza covers all the costs of your courses, because we believe in investing in our employees.
In return, we expect them to be independent, responsible and respectful of our company culture and to fulfil our clients needs. We value and generously reward loyalty, hard work and talent, specifically in that order.
Formal performance reviews are essential to take notice of your professional growth and for us to receive feedback in a structured way from you and device mutually beneficial training plans or address under performance and establish recovery plans.
A job category is how our clients define their needs/requirements and it is not directly linked to a specific salary. Client ranks are not ours to share, as we are bound by confidentiality agreements that we respect in full. We do have non-competition clauses in our contracts because we make large investment in our staff and we help them grow so that they can become leaders in our organisation of that of our clients, in exchange we expect a certain standard of loyalty.
We find this kind of reviews challenging but important to respond to and act upon as opportunities to ever improve our organisation. However, we do have to take some with a pinch of salt as we have to consider whether this could be just trolling. If this is not the case our management is always open to meet and learn from a disappointed past employee (please do get in contact!).
