Pluspunten

Lots of great people still there as engineers or team leads

Minpunten

Uses people as resources Business outlook is bleak Service sector, so lots of big peaks and troughs Low pay Company spends far to much time focusing on clients who are 1 in a million and take up most of the companies recourses. Insist on growing even when projections are low

Hi I am really sorry to hear that your experience of working at the company and with individual members of the team is so negative. It’s true that we work in a tough sector and experience peaks and troughs just like any other business, and like many companies, we are subject to the whims of a very competitive market and decisions that are made beyond our control. Please be assured that all our decision-making, including the tough strategic decisions, are taken after a great deal of discussion, deliberation and challenge. It is unfortunate that our strategic direction of travel did not align with your views, but it is reassuring to hear that you think many great people are still with the company and we couldn’t agree more. I hope that one day you are able to look back more positively on the time spent with us and the friends you enjoyed working with.

Hi I am really sorry that your time at Bluefruit ended so abruptly and negatively. Having held a job for a number of years and then being on the wrong end of a redundancy process is obviously harsh and very stressful, producing an extremely emotional situation. When a business finds itself in the position we were in, some difficult and painful decisions have to be made which will regrettably have an impact on some members of the team. Redundancy situations are always hard, and this was no exception; we deliberated long and hard over the fairest way to carry out the process and support the people going through it. However, that work can never adequately prepare for the devastating personal impact that being made redundant will inevitably have. If it has been made harder because you did not receive your PILON, please get in touch and I urge others to do the same. I hope that the pain will slowly recede and one day you will be able to look back on the those days and the friends you enjoyed working with.
