Pros

Good work life balance due to hybrid working

Cons

Online businesses do need to be fleet of foot, but that is very different to constantly changing major decisions around product areas that will / wont launch. brand strategies, M&A, Above the line activity, prospecting strategies, CSR statement, partnerships and affiliations...you name it, it changed...constantly There was a feeling of having no control, no say, no ownership and as such people have left in their droves...most voluntarily They rode the wave of lockdown, but did not and have not changed their strategies at all and as such as the world opened up and people could spend money on stuff other than home renovations, their business slowed down...adding another 'I told you so' frustration for the colleagues who had been trying to grow and diversify the strategies employed Avoid this place...

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your experience working with UK Flooring Direct. We do encourage hybrid working which gives our employees flexibility to work both from home and from the offices. We have had feedback from our employees on how they feel hybrid working encourages a positive work / life balance and promotes a culture of trust. As a growing business, we need to ensure we are adapting to external changes within the market, which can mean decisions being made and reprioritisation of inhouse projects. Throughout COVID-19, the situation in Eastern Europe and the cost of living impact, it has meant at times we have needed to change our direction of focus in order to do what is best for the business, our employees and our customers. We understand that change can sometimes be perceived as a negative, however any changes made are considered thoroughly and only made when in the best interest of our employees to future proof the business. in these chalmenigng times.
