Pros

Wages that are offered seem attractive

Cons

Beware working for this business. In my time with the company 7 people left due to the hostile working environment and ridiculous expectations on all staff. There has been a large turnover of staff leaving this business over the last three years which I found out shortly after starting... You are expected to perform at a high level while at the same time allowed no responsibility to make any decisions or change existing procedures or processes.

Pros

A lot off the staff you meet here will be like family and are very trust worthy. However you have to put your trust in the right people. You get Christmas shut down which isn’t taken from your holiday allowance. You receive a card and gift on your birthday. Salary is not bad depending on what level you are in your career.

Cons

I read these reviews before accepting my offer of employment with the company. I chose to take them with a pinch of salt as a lot of employees can write negative things this doesn’t mean they are a true reflection. However please read the reviews and take them seriously, I have worked there for just under two years and just like the reviews my contract has now been terminated. When asked why I was told that it was because I had an attitude problem and didn’t say good morning to everyone, everyday. I see myself as a genuine person and have made genuine connection here with people so I far from have an attitude problem. I am always on time and have completed all work that’s been given to me despite doing 4 full time jobs here after people have left or been dismissed and they have failed to fill these job roles until it approached my two years in service. You can’t do a job to your full ability and despite saying they want to move forward they cannot embrace technology or change. Everything still has to be printed out, you have to do personal jobs for the directors and receive offensive and derogatory emails that are not professional if you do your actual job instead of the personal errands they have asked from you. You employ qualified people to listen to their professional options not to tell them what to do when you don’t even understand or are unqualified in that job role yourself. There is no room for growth, no career progression on offer. People have been in the same roles for 30 plus years and the only reason they can’t get rid of these people is because they won’t accept their low redundant offers and they have to follow the law with these employees. There is no team of people in any department, so what staff are in each department have to compensate for understaffing and if they are on holiday different jobs fall on you even if you have no experience or qualifications in this area. If you’re a genuine person you will sink here like I have. As clearly just getting on with your job and helping others isn’t enough. The people who sit back and do nothing fly under the radar and this company is a sinking ship if they keep dismissing people who generally understand their job role to employ people that clearly have no other career prospects to keep coming back to the same company on numerous occasions. You don’t read a book backwards so why would you step back in your career unless you have nothing to offer other companies.
