MyLondonHome Reviews

Ok, Where to start... Below is my honest and unbiased view of the company. - Incompetent Directors - Management that are unscrupulous and at times hard to work for but that can almost be excused as they are regularly under an intense work load from the notoriously work shy Directors and CEO. - Water damaged office in Victoria that makes it a day to day challenge to be there not to mention detrimental to your health! - Director pays family members salaries that don't work for the company but refuses to pay honest, hardworking staff higher wages. Most staff are on a basic of 17K with extremely high / unrealistic targets. - CEO routinely abuses staff members to the extent of them either quitting under the strain or getting fired due to not reaching the unrealistically high standards that the management set but couldn't even adhere to themselves. - Scapegoating is a regular occurrence. - High turnover of Staff. - Illegal and immoral invasion of staff privacy. - HMRC regularly sent debt collectors to the Victoria office. - Verbal abuse form the CEO to almost everyone. - Last minute firings - They fired the entire cleaning team in one afternoon and had no one to clean their offices or fulfill client cleaning obligations. - Absolutely no culpability from Directors for any failings of the company. Property Managers blamed for the firing of the cleaning team - Words mentioned by the CEO in a company meeting were "The Cleaners tears are on your hands for not selling their services". - Extremely unfair pay scales. Directors earn anywhere from 60K up to 150K while regular staff members are on a basic of approx. 17K. - When ex staff put honest reviews on Glassdoor the company directs their legal team to take action to find out who the person is that wrote the review. To my knowledge Glassdoor have not yielded as of yet. - Broken Promises: Staff members promised that they will help with Visa renewals with no follow up meaning staff have had to leave the U.K. - Any suspicion of outgoing staff is met with deep investigations into them including the contracting of an external company to scan their PC (Company PC) and try to find anything they can. They were once asked if they could "Get the personal email address and password if it was singed into on a work machine" I left a good honest and professional company to work for My London Home and while i learned a lot about dealing with difficult people and standing on my own two feet professionally i wouldn't recommend anyone to go working for them. Please heed my advice.

The office was eerily similar to a dungeon with the staff walking on eggshells to avoid the wrath of the up-and-down CEO. There were unrealistic targets which did not make business sense - 40 viewings a week? The only relief was when the CEO took Friday off. After spending nearly 2 years there I still don't know what the companies business plan or vision is - they constantly change their minds. Micromanagement at its worst, everything you did was scrutinised, emails, calls, personal lives etc. were under the microscope and checked. The public sacking of staff was indicative of their scaremongering culture. They would make you feel bad for not staying outside working hours and would email you late in evenings and on the weekends to question you. There were a lot of threatening emails from the directors. The 7 day weeks, 30 minute lunch breaks (monitored) made me exhausted and made some of the staff ill. I would recommend to anyone thinking about working here to think twice, especially as a first job, as they have destroyed some very talented people's confidence. This is not how a company should be run - people are numbers and aren't treated as human beings.
