Paying for huge failure that makes no sense to anyone. Disgusting but the HR woke team will spin up a wellness week that will do the trick.

It tells you absolutely everything you need to know about the contempt they really hold their employees in.
Lining their already stuffed pockets while the workers get given meager, real term pay-cuts at the end of one of the most difficult, exhausting years of their working lives, and the cost of living skyrockets.
It's completely disgusting. Tory Britain at its finest.

£ 1.5 million a year plus bonuses for destroying a business versus £ 1,500 a month plus a tip to try desperately not to let customers escape ... working as slaves to repair the damage of a group of incompetent rich people ...... there is something wrong......

Oh, and his bonus was £500K. Or more than 250x more than the average bonus. Thanks for all your hard work folks.

Latest fillings at Companies House show Mr Kilroy's annual salary is ~£1.5M !!!! Just keep that in mind when he talks about keeping costs low and the meagre pay rises we were awarded this year.

"We have done this before, we know what we are doing."

You could be forgiven for not taking that claim entirely on face value.

I'm no businessman but I'm sure there are plenty of ways to boldly change business direction without savagely gutting the company, getting rid of a huge swathe of the most talented staff, completely undermining the morale and job security of the remaining employees, and completely alienating the customer base through degradation of service levels.

I'm not sure what I was expecting when Fransisco Partners took over, but from a supposed company of that size and experience I did expect basic business compentcy, and nothing I've seen in the past 18 months suggests anything near it. The KLT aren't playing some kind of long game 4D chess with the business, they're just deeply mediocre corporate clowns in suits who have no understanding or respect for the company that was, it's workers, it's customers or the industry they do business in, who just about scuttled the company last May and have been lurching along, making it up as they go ever since.

Insider news from SLT. By the end of 2024, hopefully only a few products will still be in the portfolio. If you remember some of Tom’s first words: “We have done this before, we know what we are doing”, and look at the history of Tom and FP on other companies, it all makes sense. Cutting away all the “fat” is the strategy. Nobody can be secure besides from most of the SLT and the KLT..

There's something fishy about the last few comments. All the replies confirming the redundancies seem to have the same terrible grasp on English/grammar.

Not convinced these latest redundancy reports aren't somebody playing stupid attention seeking games.

Key attributes to become a manager at Keyloop.

  1. Be a sycophant
  2. Be a sycophant
  3. Be a sycophant

The KLT do not have a clue about the DMS or how it works or the industry it was built for, but are all good chums that have socialised together previously and are just focused on the bonus they will get when the company is sold on, the majority of the next management levels have the key attributes. All very, very sad for the workers and customers.

Desperate for skills ...... selection of employees dismissed a few months ago ......... something wrong? where is the mistake? Are they firing, hiring and firing again? Schizophrenia? or Strategy? Only the market will evaluate ..... but at the moment the competition is enriching.

Not to defend Keyloop but CDK we’re equally pi-s poor with their annual rises. Many a year I didn’t get one at all.
