Pros

Free cheap coffee and sometimes milk? Incentive company trip to Ibiza, now suspended due to poor performance

Cons

Racial discrimination Expect to be called names by the top management and ridiculed in public Drug use environment encouraged by top management Cruel, bully tactics from the Owners who don't support their staff in anyway Really high turnover (even for a recruitment agency) at least 4 people leave each month Mice infestation and they won’t do anything about it, droppings all over the kitchen and desks No training Pressured to work longer hours than contracted The Senior Management is a joke and they are currently looking to leave Back office and accounts department are useless Tax evasion Avoid at all costs!

This is very disappointing to read. I'm sorry you are so negative about your view of the business and hope you are much happier in your current role. We are committed to listening and acting upon constructive criticism wherever concerns are real.

Pros

There were some good consultants who worked in the office when I was there but a lot have gone into bigger and better things. Suggestions that were put forward a couple of years ago are now being actioned - such as the diversification of the business model.

Cons

You can tell by the Glassdoor review site that this company has absolutely no integrity. Papering over reviews of former and current employees who have been treated horrifically. The biggest mistake I made was joining Switch as opposed to a company like McCarthy which looks to have a much better structure and Managing Director. HR policy is disgraceful, senior consultants setting traps for consultants to discuss very sensitive information and then informing directors of a leak. It’s a shame, the business really has lost its way in the market and has no identity. But don’t worry, this will be followed by a 5 star review

Thank You for your review. Our Temps division has been growing over the last year and has more opportunities for Temps now than was the case in Nov 2018. Please feel free to get back in touch should you wish.
