Pros

Having worked here for a few months, I've been made to feel extremely welcome by everybody and proud to be part of the Thomson Local family and a positive, enthusiastic, forward thinking company. The senior management team are very focused, driven and genuinely cares about employees and Thomson Local customers. I would highly recommend Thomson Local as a new employer to anyone, the rewards are excellent, the training is fantastic, the management team are very approachable and supportive as is the ongoing support from everyone within the Thomson local family.

Cons

As most account manager / field sales roles it is long hours and hard work but you get the rewards.

Pros

Very hard to chose one, but I’d say the office staff located in head office.

Cons

Where do I start? So just to give a little background to this company. Thomson local actually went into administration back in 2013- it was then brought out and re launched. Thinking that this company had learnt from its boiler room sales tactics I decided to join in a hope I would be part of a foward thinking, innovative company. The business is now being run on a day to day basis by someone with a very warped idea of what management, and long term success looks like. There is one philosophy when it comes to management at TL and thats micro management, the company is built on high- volume sales, but without the support. From a business POV The sales model can be very easily manipulated, with sales orders being loaded, only to be cancelled a few weeks later but not effecting the bottom line, and favouritisms being made to certain people. I have no doubt the owner will eventually realasie that he’s being made to look the fool.. If you want to work for a company that supports its employees then DO NOT work here. I took the leap thinking I would be supported in building a career but it’s clear the company want quick success and immediate sales but without the support.
