Pros

A good office location, the people are kind and the vibes are fairly relaxed.

Cons

It doesn't feel like a front and centre office. London and Manchester are seen as the central hubs. Feels a little stayed.

Pros

None at all. Steer clear of this awful company.

Cons

1. Appalling management. 2. Members of the Evesham team lack knowledge of the law. 3. Awful HR, they are purely performative, they are not impartial. 4. No consideration is given to mental wellbeing. 5. Policies are awful. 2 weeks sick leave (including 7 days self certifying) at full pay then drops down to SSP. 7 hour daily targets but don't even give you the work to bill 2 hours. 6. Evesham team are never in the office, yet new starters in the team are expected to be in 3 days a week. Poor team culture. 7. Firm sounds great on paper but the reality is far from it. Wish I could give them 0 stars. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
