When my Simpro journey started, it was very much an Australian company with a strong Aussie culture and overall great feel-good factor within. Things changed (eroded) culturally when the Aus Execs left and replaced with Execs from the US. This change was the start of a slow decline which is now accelerating into a horribly toxic environment from what I’m hearing. The toxicity within along with the way the customers are supposedly now being treated is extremely sad to hear! I feel for the dedicated staff (with 10-15 years of service) in Australia who have put their life and soul into their jobs, only to be disposed of and replaced by staff in the US with connections to the leadership team.

Old-school bully-style leadership with a lot of ‘yes-men’ below is obviously how things role in the US, but that culture doesn’t sit well with staff in other areas of the world. Look at the Glassdoor reviews between 17th and 27th June where there’s suddenly a batch of 5-star reviews from current employees (mainly in the US) after a huge volume of negativity from previous employees. Quite clearly a memo has been sent out to the disciples asking (or should I say telling) them to stop the Glassdoor rot (also known as the truth). This says it all, and it’s so sad to see a once great company to work for head in this direction!!
