Pros

Started good and good training. Seemed like the best CV company and would have recommended to friends.

Cons

Simply they dont pay. I would hate for them to recruit any more writers and for them to be in the same situation. How they can expect writers to wait 2+ months to be paid is beyond me. They take such a big cut as well for the average cv you would get £12/13, coupled with all the changes it really isnt worth it. Management ignore emails.

Pros

Nothing good about this company except it is freelance work from home... but read on dear friend.

Cons

They don't pay you. It is all a con. A big lie. You may get paid something after a month or two ... a 'carrot on a stick' as it were, but they stop paying you and fob you off with many apologetic excuses. You can spend weeks chasing payments. The company are off shore and untraceable so they are untouchable by the law. I am based in the UK and UK law has no power over these crooks.Their business model is to employ staff and cut them off after a few months when the freelance writer becomes aware of the dire situation. They then employ new writers and the cycle continues.
