Pros

Decent rewards package. However, if you’re looking for a job where you’re treated like an actual human being instead of an emotionless robot then please don’t fall for it. Listen to the 1* reviews on here.

Cons

In my opinion and from my own experience, this place is truly toxic. It started off great and but with the introduction of a couple of individuals it became completely about profit at the price of great customer service with ridiculous KPI’s being set for the service team that made no sense whatsoever other than for new management to try and justify their high wages, this is just my opinion of course. 😇 I believe management don’t know or understand their role or the role of the service staff. Those with mental health issues are treated lesser than at best or ridiculed in front of other members of staff at worse. My experience has been horrible, distressing and a complete waste of time. If you like call centres where numbers mean more than high quality customer care and your mental health takes a ride down the toilet due to the role changing then changing back, stupid KPIs pulled out of thin air, colleagues being sacked or suspended, deleted off systems with 0 fair warning and no goodbye then please be my guest and apply to join this circus.

Pros

Struggling to think of any other than it was pleasure to leave this companyf

Cons

Toxic middle managers who have no skills to manage themselves let alone other people. Promotion/ posts given on jobs for the boys. Who are People who know each other and have the same small mindset. Commission structure very poor and even force sales reps to ask customers to write 5 star reviews so reps can meet the "review targets" to get paid poor commission rates. Not able to think for yourself and organise your own day /times.. micromanaging is understatement... I can't think of anything good to write about this idiotic setup with morans for managers.. I have so many examples of things said and done by these morans however would be still typing next week to list the full issues and ridiculous things done and said
