Pros

All expenses paid work trips to the Canary Islands Ground floor canteen Paid monthly Interesting, engaging staff Experienced staff Initial training off phones

Cons

Big Brother style start on the telephones. You need to speak with a Southern Counties accent or you're just not really welcome. Earning potential limited : senior staff control the type of calls you get. If you are sent more admin type calls your sales earnings and your team ranking decreases. After an initial 6 months you show excellent development , even come top in team rankings, yet that's still not good enough. I still didn't speak in a southern counties accent. Initial training very superficial Staff constantly work in survival mode to achieve 20 or so different targets. If you don't deliver what leaders want, you would be forced out and shown no mercy. Cancel your pre-booked holiday to suit business needs if you're a new member of staff. You need to quickly join a clique as soon as you arrive, or you'll be vulnerable to team leader bullies.

Pros

Colleagues and friends Concession scheme SOME good products Good opportunities to travel Big business culture (if you like that kind of thing) Good commercial modelling and sound propositions

Cons

Appalling leadership. Especially at board level. There is practically zero external experience and because they have grown and been promoted through a "jobs for the boys culture" they know little else and just bring more underexposed and naive talent through the ranks, constantly convincing themselves that the business is improving when it's actually detracting. The board pays complete lip service to the notion of having to change, but then when forced - relents and backtracks to avoid making any firm commitment to improve the business or address incredibly serious Customer experience shortcomings. Always wanting more for less without realising that the business needs a serious investment to gain the returns it commits to. Most of the senior management are aware that more should be done to improve the product, experience and systems but everything that requires any investment is scoffed at.

TUI Group Response

We really respect your right to share your experiences and perspective, but we don’t feel that your comments fully reflect the reality of working for TUI. It looks like you may be a current colleague, so we’d love to talk to you in more detail to better understand your experiences and to understand what we can do differently for you. We’d love it if you felt able to get in touch with your Board Director or our Human Resources Director to discuss further. You identified many pros about working for TUI and it sounds like you’ve been able to take advantage of them, which is great. As is the case for every business, we don’t get it right all of the time for every colleague or every customer, but we’re incredibly proud of our business and we work hard every day to balance the needs of our colleagues, our customers and our shareholders. Over the past three years we’ve seen some significant improvements in our commercial, customer satisfaction and our colleague engagement results. We’ve made huge investments to benefit the customer experience -new ships, planes and hotels, as well as IT infrastructure and stores - at the same time continually seeking to minimise cost and waste to keep our prices competitive for customers. We’re committed to providing customers with a great experience when they holiday and interact with us. At pretty much every touch point we ask customers for their feedback and keep using it to help us improve our customers experience - especially when we fall short of our own high standards. We’re proud of our ability to grow and develop people within the business, but we also recognise the need to keep bringing in new ideas and fresh perspectives and 33% of our current Senior Leadership team, 38% of whom are women, joined from outside the business in the last three years. We’re not a perfect business, but we’re ambitious and seek to be the very best we can for our colleagues, customers and shareholders.
