Regus Reviews

Cons

No cons I can think of

Cons

they expect more that they say on their job description

Cons

Middle and upper management just saw you as a number and offered no progression in mid to long term, if this was your first time in the Serviced office industry great start but much better opportunity.

Cons

Where to start?
-Expect to be called to work out of hours - and not be paid a supplement for essentially being on call 24/7.
-Staff are utterly dissengaged- this company are the kings of micro management.
-Be prepared to be a cleaner, a centre manager, an expert in facilities management, a milkman, a project manager and everything in between.
-Everything breaks, and when I say everything I mean absolutely everything. I worked in a reasonably new centre and we saw everything from broken lifts, lights, doors, flooring, air con, toilets-the list goes on.
-Management are shocking, all scared of the CEO and no escalation points (unless you fancy raising a ticket on their 20 year old system and get some randomer in another country to help you)
-Be prepared to spend your own money. There is no such thing as petty cash as the company has no trust in its employees.
-Clients are filthy, you are essentially a cleaner as the business won’t invest in day time cleaners. Most mornings were spent on my hands and knees scrubbing floors and cleaning up after useless call centres. I even had to wipe down toilet seats.
- Nothing is urgent, like literally NOTHING. Power outage? Don’t worry, clients can work in another building until we find some bloke on the other side of the country who can fix it for less money.
-Sales team are allowed to run a muck, originally when I began working at Regus the sales and operations departments worked harmoniously, until each departments bonus were conflicting. This caused a cannabalistic atmosphere, where some felt it necessary to do anything for a sale.
-Accounts team are a joke, they’re overseas- and get far to many queries and complaints to cope with.
-Pay structure is ridiculous! No banding, some cities had massive discrepancies to do the same job.

Cons

Will invoice customers wrong but expect you to enforce payment or lock them out
No leadership
No culture
No people skills
You will fear for your job after the fluffy and fake probation period
Managers lie and cannot be trusted
When on induction you will be expected to pay £500 for your hotel for the week if the company credit card fails at 11pm the night before you training

Cons

too much expectations from employees, work loads getting heavier, more and more responsibilities without financial benefits, lack of support, really bad communication between different departments, very strict pecking order

Cons

Very disorganised - frequent changes in strategy. Very poor IT.

Cons

sometimes you have to work by yourself.

Cons

No progression, long hours and poor wage.

Cons

Ever changing goal posts and management is so transient they have not got a clue.
