Reeves Reviews

I took a 2.5k drop in basic to join this place with the long term dream they sold me in the interviews. With the job offer got told had to wait 6 months to start, odd, why not just say in the interview stages when that’s that’s something that was already decided? Before starting get asked to do a hybrid role, I said sure, asked if I could still do my main role that I got the job for and wanted to join Reeves for definitely as part of that hybrid set up, got told ‘yes’. I start and on day 1 get given a training booklet for a completely different role which 1 means I got lied to & 2 after making this decision certain individuals didn’t have the decency to give me a heads up and see if I am okay with it before starting.They just let me start and assumed it’s fine. Months pass… I’m still not doing what I went there for, by this stage my personal development has been absolutely flatlined for about 8-months just because of what feels like immaturity, incompetency and dishonesty, a lack of care for peoples feelings or personal development. Now mind you during this period I still always did everything I could to go above and beyond. There’s more to it but you get it…. No hard feelings, blessing in disguise as I am right where I need to be now, just trying to prevent other individuals who really try their best for there employers from potentially going through the same thing.

False impression given of the company, managers and HR. Act very nice during interviews but once you’re in they don’t care about you. Employees aren’t able to apply for jobs outside the firm as you are seen as a waste of time and money. Appalling HR and management. Gaslighting from HR. Not open to feedback or adjustments. Racist and sexist comments made by managers and colleagues. Predatory behaviour from employees. Favourite employees are given benefits and treated nicely. If managers don’t like you, they will treat you as such. Head of HR and managers not supportive and were incredibly rude. No support during training - you are thrown into the work with strict deadlines and no proper strategy, you get passed around colleagues who clearly don’t want to help. During interview they stated their employee retention was good for at least a few years at a time, when I got there everyone has been there from 3 weeks to a few months - they are always advertising new roles and have new staff - clearly not truthful. 7 days for holidays. Very competitive environment, not professional - swearing, inappropriate comments, throwing items around the room. Very cramped, not enough space to accommodate all staff. Not the environment for disabled persons access - cramped on desks, little room for moving around.
