adam Reviews

Before you accept their offer, I urge you to ask to see their numbers on staff turnover. Ask for the record between 2015 - Now, then make your decision. You will be absolutely shocked I promise you! - Management and staff in general are forever changing. So any development that someone promises or begins to try to implement get's lost in translation. Much like the promise they make to their clients; "selling an over priced product, to a clientele that has no money and trying to sell to a group of people that have no power" - They try to squeeze blood out of a stone (making you work in a team that is generally at least 1 person short, with increasing work but no investment in the team or in growth - Management are selfish, arrogant and immature (not all management, some are very friendly but have minimal power due to top level management) - Ever dangling carrot - you will be promised the world and not given a brick! If you are looking to achieve and improve outside of this business, it is not possible because you are not given the opportunity nor the support (despite them preaching it) - If you're not liked, you're not liked. I have seen these people sack VERY talented people on numerous occasions because their face didn't fit the bill - If I was to start again at this company, I would never work as hard, never commit to the level I did and never give them the time that was never going to get me any steps up.

The business has an exceptionally poor management board. The senior managers have no prior experience and are simply making it up as they go along. This poor practice doesn't just apply to the daily operation of the business but also in the things they promise to clients too. The main selling point of their product is that the public sector is in a poor place and are desperate for a more modern solution - hardly a reason to choose adam's offering over anyone else’s, given that it rarely performs as advertised. As far as culture goes, it is archaic. Everyone is expected to be in the office Monday – Friday 8.30 to 5pm and it is frowned upon to put in a request to work from home. The senior managers who have the backing of a distant and inaccessible CEO continuously in-fight over their approaches, none of which have any credit to it other than “because I said so”. The most serious concern at adam thought is that they have demonstrated time and time again that they are quick to dispose of people as they constantly restructure and re-hire as they attempt to come up with an operation that is profitable. There several previous reviews dating back to 2019 that warn about this unstable culture and although recruiters might tell you that they are from vexatious ex-employees, they are still just as relevant as ever. I would encourage any prospective candidate who isn’t put off at this point to look their interviewer in the eye and ask them how many redundancies were made in the last 12 months – it is absolutely astounding how these mindless “businessmen” can convince anyone that their latest plan is the one.
