Pros

Staff culture friendly Good training, thrown in the deep end type of culture where you learn fast Work hard attitude Free fruit

Cons

-Basically paying below the legal minimum wage (24k to start) - No work from home, so you are made to spend most of your low income on travel 5 days a week -Management are selfish, and stuck in their own ways (old school culture) -No sick pay, so if you are unwell, youd have to come in, to get paid or you have to come in until 1PM to get paid if youre ill -Not much support from management when your struggling and ask for help, if you say youre struggling for money, they just dont care -Staff have a high retention (always new staff coming in and staff getting fired of leaving) -Annual leave isnt great -The company only hire 17 year olds to make sure they can pay them small income (management are very stingy with their money) - Bitchiness from management, slagging off other agencies, blackmailing you to stay if you want to leave. Im writing this to help new staff or people that are thinking to start actually know what the company is like.
