Xplor Technologies Response

Hi there, Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re dedicated to building a culture at Xplor where every Xplorer feels included, valued and empowered to make an impact. That’s why inclusion and diversity are at the heart of our Xplor values. We’re proud that 33% of our Senior Leadership Team and 1/3 of our Technology Leadership Team (that Engineering is a part of) is female, and approximately 20% of all Xplorers identify as racially or ethnically diverse. We say approximately because it’s difficult to assess race and ethnicity globally, as it’s defined differently across regions and some countries prohibit us from asking for or tracking this data. That said, we do track this data where we can because we believe measuring this is one of the steps we can take to improving it. We know we’ve still got work to do when it comes to building an inclusive culture, and we’re committed to doing this work. That’s why we recently launched a 3-year strategy called Inclusion Ignites Innovation, and a big part of this strategy is focused on how we can attract, develop and retain diverse talent. You can read the full strategy in the Knowledge Library on Workplace, just search for “Inclusion” in the search box. Thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback, we really appreciate it. Stefan Welack Global TA Enablement 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.
