Yoto Response
2yThank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We're sorry to hear about your experience, especially regarding communication, workload, and diversity. We do have a clear onboarding process in place and are proud of the diverse and inclusive environment we've cultivated - we have an active DE&I employee group with passionate Executive level sponsorship, who are always working to improve opportunities and representation.
Working at a scale-up can feel a little chaotic at times, and the pace is fast, but ensuring a healthy work-life balance is a priority for us. We work hard to ensure our flexible working policies reflect this commitment and we are proud that it is one of the top things that our team values about working at Yoto.
We were shocked by your feedback about restructuring and firing practices. In the last three years there has been one company restructure. This was a process that was not taken lightly and a full and robust consultation was held with all impacted individuals. Our staff turnover rate is 6%, which we hope is evidence that we do not have a culture of ‘firing’, and any examples of under-performance are managed through supportive improvement processes.
We encourage you to reach out to our People Team (people@yotoplay.com) with more details so we can better understand and address your concerns. Your feedback is crucial to our ongoing efforts to improve.
Thank you for being part of our journey towards creating a better workplace for all.
Best wishes,
People Team
