Lovely people but overall very disappointing - Account Executive Speed Communications Employee Review

I am both shocked and surprised to see this review. Speed has a strong culture of inclusion with every member of the team aware that discrimination of any form will not be tolerated. We consistently invest in building team awareness in this space. The whole agency undertakes compulsory Equity, Diversity and Inclusion training annually and at a leadership level additional unconscious bias training has been implemented. This commitment is also reflected in our approach to recruitment. Our in-house recruitment team work with a number a platforms and partners to raise awareness of roles ensuring as wide a reach as possible. In the recruitment process, CVs are always redacted to ensure we are shortlisting candidates based on skills and experience only. We also have an ongoing relationship with Not Impossible who help us to host 16–25 year-olds through microplacements to build our talent pipeline and fuel social mobility. You state you are a current employee, so I am taken aback that you have not raised concerns through any of the number of open or confidential routes within the agency, such as our peer level forums, supportive line management, the open door of our Head of Culture whose focus is on team wellbeing or directly to our People Services team. If any such concerns were raised action would have immediately been taken as any form of discrimination is taken very seriously. I would really like to talk to you directly and hope you will allow me this opportunity. Kelly Pepworth, MD Speed
