Pros

It makes profit… so you have a job.

Cons

It’s good to care about profit because obviously if not.. nobody has a job. But what is funny is how they’re now doing this venture into so-called Care Farming under the guise of ‘positively changing lives” Care farms are where tax payers pay for SEND children to learn in an educational environment… sounds noble, right? A lovely Not-for-profit venture to positively change lives? Not this CEO (the one not listed on here, which is ironic… or a good choice!) All you would hear is about how ‘reliable’ the money is, about how much it’s going to be worth, about what this will do for profit…. Nothing about how excited he is to help SEND children who need help… nothing about how he is looking forward to seeing how it helps their lives… No… it’s just about the money… the profit.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Rise has always been clear about what we stand for. We are a performance-led business that believes in accountability, growth, and building something sustainable. Profit is not a dirty word here. It protects jobs, creates opportunity, and allows us to invest in new ideas and future projects. Anyone who has spent meaningful time at Rise will understand that. What is disappointing is when opinion is presented as fact, particularly around ventures or conversations that sit outside someone’s direct role or experience. The anonymous nature of Glassdoor makes it difficult to verify context, and unfortunately we have seen periods where a small number of bad actors have posted misleading or fake reviews. That doesn’t reflect the reality of over 150 people who come to work here every day and contribute positively to our culture. We are proud to be ambitious, commercially focused, and forward-thinking, and we are equally proud to be an award-winning place to work. Rather than forming a view from anonymous commentary alone, we encourage anyone interested in Rise to speak directly with our team, meet our people, and understand first-hand why so many choose to build long-term careers here. This environment won’t be right for everyone, and that’s okay. We wish you the best moving forward and hope you find a place that aligns with what you are looking for.

Pros

Never felt so reinvigorated as I did on the day I left

Cons

If you’re reading this please engage your critical thinking skills and realise that you’re made to make positive reviews on Glassdoor and that this is a boiler room graduate sales farm that can and will grind you down. 10 of you come in in a month, 2 of you swim and make a few placements and cover the cost of the 8 who sank. Enjoy.

Thanks for your feedback. We welcome all reviews – positive or constructive – as long as they reflect real experiences at Rise. We’ve recently seen a few reviews that raise concerns due to inconsistencies with what we know internally and our records. Where appropriate, we’ve flagged these to Glassdoor for review, to make sure the platform remains fair and trustworthy for everyone. For anyone considering joining Rise: we encourage you to speak directly with our team, visit our offices, and judge us on our people, purpose and day-to-day experience. We’re proud of the culture we’ve built—and we’re always working to make it even better.
