Thanks for taking the time to give us feedback. I’m really pleased to see your lovely positive comments concerning our nice staff. We think our team at Data Interchange are just brilliant! It’s also great to see that you thought the equipment we provide our staff to work with was nice and that we pay well. These are things that we really take pride in, it’s important to us that our staff have all the tools they need to succeed. I’m sorry to hear some the cons you felt about your time working with us. It is fair to say that over recent months it’s been challenging for us and many other businesses that have been impacted by COVID 19. However, Data Interchange are proud to say that we have kept our staff safe and well during this time. We have not made any redundancies due to COVID 19 and the business is performing incredibly well. Since April we’ve hired over 15 people and will welcome another 10 new employees before the end of 2020. Data Interchange is a family-owned business which has been trading successfully for over three decades. We believe this is a very exciting time for our business – not just because of our new strategy and investment in product development but in particular because of the fantastic people we have in our business.

Pros

Some talented and friendly colleagues who carried the business. Decent work/life balance.

Cons

As other reviews have indicated, management is a bloody mess. Senior management have no coherent strategic vision, resulted in multiple 180 decisions. Constant revolving door at the very top. Toxic culture resulting in politics, infighting and backstabbing as teams rally to protect themselves from blame. Witnessed horrible micromanagement by one senior manager. Another senior manager had no interest in their reports whatsoever. Owners of the business completely disinterested and uninvolved in their own business. Not surprisingly, most of the talented individuals have left the business.

We are glad you recognise the wonderful people who work at Data Interchange. We have had some talented people leave recently, and we are really pleased we were able to help them develop their careers. However, we still have over 100 amazing people, working in 4 different countries, driving the business forward with many more talented people joining us in 2021. The business has a consistent strategic vision. We have made some adjustments to how we actively deliver our strategic vision over the past couple of years in response to the challenging times faced across the world over the last two years. We acknowledge that in some cases this might have felt like "180 decisions" have been made, however, the Leadership Team have always made any decisions to adjust the course we are taking with the best interests of the business and our people at the heart. It has been a challenging time for us all, particularly our managers and some of our teams. We are working hard to provide training and support to our management teams to be the best they can be. The owners of the business made the decision to take a step back from actively running the business over two years ago. They entrusted the skills, experience and knowledge of the Leadership Team to run the business and care for our people,
