Xplor Technologies Response

Hi there Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad you think there are good people at Xplor – we think so too, and we’re really proud of all our Xplorers. However, we’re sorry there were some parts of working at Xplor you didn’t enjoy. Because Xplor has grown quickly by acquisition, we’re still integrating different parts of our business as we set ourselves up to best serve our customers. This means exciting product sets, incredible potential to do more for our customers and opportunities to grow into new geographies as we gain new Xplorers in different regions. It can also mean silos in some parts of our business that are unavoidable for a time, as we take time to plan the best structures and implement them. We need to make sure we communicate clearly during these times of change, so that the vision for where we’re heading is clear, and that we’re honest about when things will be tough for a while as we go through those changes – thanks for your feedback on this. At Xplor, we have an annual salary review process, that takes into consideration market rates, to ensure we’re always competitive with our total rewards. Alongside this, we’re proud that we’ve recently introduced an Annual Xplorer Bonus Plan, giving every Xplorer the opportunity to share in the success of our company. We wish you the best in your career and thank you again for sharing your experience on Glassdoor. Thanks Stefan Welack Global Talent Operations Lead

Explor Ever since Explor was purchased by a PE firm, every aspect of the company to the most granular detail has effectively gone up in flames. For anyone who needs context, PE firms are parasites that steal exorbitant amounts of money from the companies they buy out - and then they have 26 year old matcha drinking ‘financial associates’ in some high rise in NYC make pivotal business decisions that negatively affect hundreds of employees’ lives all because they learned in an MBA class that making the ‘costs’ line in the Excel spreadsheet go down would make the ‘profit’ line go up. The first ‘strategic’ business decision made was to cut down on software developers (to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel), which has resulted in a WORSE product - then they hiked the price on customers (Again, to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel) which as anyone would have expected, enraged ALL our customers. The resultant employees who didn’t abruptly leave are now tormented daily with more and more ignoramus ‘strategic’ business decisions and treated like ants that a child is playfully burning alive with a magnifying glass. If you want to be treated with any human dignity whatsoever, Explor will not be a good fit for you. However, if you want every day at work to feel like you are a participant in the Stanford Prison Experiment while simultaneously having to take calls at all hours from every customer who wont stop asking “Why does the software I pay money for to run my business no longer work”, Explor will be the perfect future employer for you to take that big next step in your career.
