DISGUSTING STAFF AND MANAGEMENT- Unprofessional

Recruiter

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

none aside from a pay check that isn't worth the level of disrespect this company displays.

Cons

This company has no ethics nor respect for their staff. Will allocate a job to one person and allocate the easy jobs to those they like. Expect racist and ignorant homophobic comments towards workers and staff and do not pay employees on time,

Do you enjoy paying for your own water?

Consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Can think of nothing meaningful in all seriousness.

Cons

Was honestly charged for drinking water in the office for nearly a year. Offices are old and dilapidated. If you're a rec consultant looking for a company LOOK ELSEWHERE. You will not get your own computer and will be micro-managed and treated like a child. Working here was painful, 90% of staff were miserable and complained constantly. If you enjoy forcing temps to be paid by sketchy third parties, having them work in 3rd world conditions for minimum wage at 5am in the morning (and take phone calls at that time for no extra money) then you will be happy here. Work for any, any of the other high street recruiters.
