Pros

Iris have invested heavily in its people. Training and developing staff to bring out their full potential and further develop their already excellent skills. Recently invested in Mental Health First Aid course to help support the mental health and wellbeing of all the Iris family, encouraging people to look after their mental as well as physical health. Together with a support package of private health care, employee support lines, wellbeing support groups and generally showing empathy and compassion, Iris is a great place to work.

Cons

Was acquired by Iris 2 years ago and was initially unsure about our direction. New Management since brought in and communication has vastly improved.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted to hear that you appreciate our extensive range of training and development opportunities. We’ve been proud to continue to run an extensive range of training sessions throughout 2020 which have been very popular – including a big focus on mindfulness, resilience and wellbeing to get us through an unprecedented year. We’ve been delighted to find Mental Health First Aider certification for employees across IRIS so they can feel confident to support colleagues if they are struggling, alongside company-funded private healthcare, our Employee Assistance Programme and Workplace Support Group who meet weekly to discuss a range of wellbeing related topics such as loneliness, stress and helping others during the pandemic. We were delighted to receive Great Place to Work Certification in reflection of the trust, care and respect our employees receive. We are an acquisitive company and we’ve been delighted to welcome you into the IRIS family. We work hard on our communication strategy, including holding monthly site updates, our Your IRIS newsletter, excellent intranet site, Teams channels and Elona’s weekly CEO emails. We’re very excited to have recently launched Peakon to enable our employees to give immediate suggestions and feedback to their managers and senior leaders so we can use your ideas to continuously improve. We really appreciate your feedback and would welcome any further ideas you’d like to share – if so, please email EmployeeFeedback@iris.co.uk or reach out to the HR team. Kind regards, the HR team

Pros

I have been with Iris for approximately 5 months and have been incredibly impressed. The people I work with from my peers, leadership (including executive leadership) and my team, are amazing. Building relationships has been easy as most of the employees are open to it, are very collaborative and genuinely want to help! Iris is also focused on equality and ensure we all have a fair opportunity for growth. While we have a lot to do here, it is clear that we are valued.

Cons

As a rapidly growing organization, we have some growing pains and some foundational processes, systems and flow that need to be updated and/or adjusted, but nothing that won't be fixed over time.
