Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted that you recognise our fantastic staff that create a friendly and welcoming work environment where everyone can bring their true self to work, and our amazing flexible working policy that ensures a great work-life-balance for our employees. At IRIS we highly prioritise giving all managers the skills they need to motivate, develop and inspire their teams, which is why we created our dedicated leadership pathways to do just that, as well as providing managers at every level with the tools and development they need to ensure they’re performing at their best. We’re delighted that on Peakon, our monthly employee survey, the vast majority of our managers score above the benchmark on employee engagement, and those not performing receive dedicated coaching, training and support to genuinely improve the engagement of their teams. We wholeheartedly encourage our employees to leave honest and constructive feedback for their manager so that they can understand how they're doing and be the best manager they can be to their team. We’re pleased to run a companywide annual salary review process each autumn, which includes external benchmarking data, to ensure we’re paying the market rate. To ensure consistency and fairness in assigning increases and to help close our gender pay gap, we also run an annual review prior to our salary review. We’re further delighted to offer all permanent employees an annual bonus entitlement, which usually pays out in summer. Along with competitive salaries, we also understand the importance of ‘total reward’ – we invest heavily in progression opportunities, internal and external training, extensive employee wellbeing support, and investment in volunteering and charitable initiatives. We’re always looking for ways we can be the best we can be, and we would welcome any further suggestions. Please contact EmployeeFeedback@iris.co.uk. Kind regards, the HR team

Pros

Lots of good products. Good bonus schemes for sales.

Cons

Few too many people need to move on. But part of furniture. Lack of quality training in soft skills for staff.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re delighted that you recognise our fantastic and award-winning product portfolio which we’re consistently looking to expand to continue delighting and attracting customers. We’re also really pleased to hear that you appreciate the total reward package we offer at IRIS, and specifically for our excellent salespeople, where we provide a comprehensive commission scheme and a range of other incentives throughout the year to reward consistency of achievement. This includes running a recognition award for our highest performing salespeople each quarter with one of the prizes being the chance to win a Mini, as well as inviting our Elite Club on luxury trips to places like Las Vegas. We’re very proud to provide a range of learning and development courses to help all our IRISians grow in their personal and professional development. Part of our offer is our ELEVATE Programme pathway, which consists of 15 different courses focused on enhancing soft skills and taking you to the next level. Courses range from how to effectively deliver feedback, setting yourself SMART goals, developing clear communication, listening skills, and how to grow in emotional intelligence. These courses are open to all employees at all levels, from juniors up to the Senior Leadership Team. We regularly promote these courses across all channels with an email recently being sent from our L&D Director, encouraging all IRISians to enrol in an ELEVATE course. We’re extremely proud of our fantastic CEO, Elona who regularly communicates with our IRIS family keeping them up to date with news around the business. Each week, employees can expect to receive shout outs from our CEO in her weekly email celebrating our #IRISHeros. IRISians also frequently share with us that they find Elona authentic and inspirational, for example, in one of our recent surveys, an employee commented: “[Elona’s] an amazing, ambitious and inspiring CEO”. We’re always looking for ways we can be the best we can be, and we would welcome any further suggestions. Please speak to your HR representative or email employee.feedback@iris.co.uk if you have more feedback to share. Kind regards, the HR team

We are proud of our extensive and varied UK benefits package, including company-funded private healthcare, life insurance, income protection, employee assistance programme, mental health provisions and discounted gym memberships, matched pension with NI uplift, our electric car scheme and many other opt-in benefits our employees can choose from. We’re delighted to be an acquisitive company that invests into successful organisations, their fantastic employees, and brilliant product to provide a wider product range to our customer base. Based on our experience, we have refined our acquisition and integration processes and proudly introduced our dedicated team within IRIS that focuses on providing a warm and supportive welcome to new businesses into the IRIS family to help them grow and continue their success. It is important for us to nurture a #1RIS culture which aligns the acquired company’s values with IRIS ones and host a Valuing You workshop for each of our acquisition. We’re delighted to share that looking at our last four largest acquisitions, their eNPS score on Peakon has increased since joining us by at least +15 and up to +47 eNPS. We’re sorry to hear that this wasn’t your experience, we’re always looking for ways we can improve, and we would welcome any further feedback.
