Pros
They offer paid holiday time
Cons
They don't seem to care about your personal circumstances, aways pulling you up for small things, general treatment of their staff is bad, always asked to do overtime or stay behind for a bit to help out unpaid. Always called in on your holidays, they can't seem to take no for an answer they keep asking till you say yes and if you don't they will remind you who handle your holiday requests to indicate that they... won't give you any of your requested time off
Show MoreAdvice to Management
Make sure that yous have enough staff to cover all shifts. Ease up on small things that don't make a difference to the customer's experience or the companies bottom line. Have better punishments for people that don't do their fair share. Have the right number of staff working when it's known that a shift will be busy.

Pros
Really nice people once you get to know everyone, does make you want to stay. Quite relaxed environment. Nice office. Monday to Friday, Good benefits e.g. pension, physio
Cons
Bonus I a little bit or miss and there’s not much you can really do about it when a lot of customers are contracted... progression isn’t the easiest route unless your face really fits. Can get monotonous.
Advice to Management
Pay more the people are worth it and if they aren’t you will get the right people with the right wages. Get a planned career path and a real structure with everyone following suit. Stick to one base strategy, I know change is good but too much is bad as there lacks continuity.
