Pros

There are some genuinely good people in the business but regrettably none of them are running it... Customer focus and offer is good but only thanks to those that actually DO the job rather than those that direct.

Cons

Tim Watts needs to go, past his sell by date and whilst once the reason the business was a success is now the reason it is a poor place to work. To the left we have 2 MD's (don't ask why 2) who fancy themselves as a comedy double act, the bumbling fool and the one with verbal diarrhoea and then to the right waiting in the wings and 'secretly' being lined up as the future we have a pair of butt kissing wannabes who could not direct traffic let alone a business... All that said we are a Times Top 100 company which of course means the business is well run, free from discrimination and serves the people who actually contribute to it....oops sorry was daydreaming again. Besides when was the last time a man was awarded the Connie Watts accolade? Yep discrimination is alive and well... Having toiled for over 10 years and been overlooked, talked down to, patronised and pretty much brow beaten at every turn I have had enough and will be looking for a proper company to work for.....let the Meriden Mafia continue to look after themselves with nice cars and houses whilst the rest work hard to keep them in the style to which they have become lazily accustomed.

Pros

They are an recruitment service

Cons

Poorly informed consultants who call candidates- with little to no information on the role-or mis-information. When you ask a question that is not on their script- they get flustered and have zero customer /candidate service skills. I would not recommend any candidate to these unskilled and inept 'consultants'.
