Flourish PR Reviews

Nasty Founder and GM (who is also the founders sister). Tight with money, won’t pay for office snacks. Force the team to put high value event and client expenses on their personal credit cards (such as flights, supplier costs, accommodation and venue fees). Favouritism to people who suck up to the Founder. No annual leave allowed, no time in lieu given for event work or overtime, taking sick leave is punished. No career progression, no pay rises or annual performance reviews (reviews are promised quarterly but don’t happen). The Founder forces staff to have mentoring sessions with her and her husband who has no PR experience. The Founder harrassed staff via slack and gets angry if staff don’t reply within a few minutes. No working from home allowed. Founder takes out her personal issues on the whole team.

- Team was worked very hard and did a lot of overtime for no time in lieu - as the owner didn't want to pay people. - Owner was very moody and would share a lot of feedback over slack which came across passive aggressive. - Owner expected responses to slacks in a minute otherwise would get frustrated - There were racist and homophobic comments from older staff members. - Not a flexible workplace and working from home was frowned upon. - No career progression or training - A lot of family involved which seems to cause conflict in the office - Owner would get angry if people would take sick leave so people would work through illness
