Pros

Working from home is the only Pro

Cons

-Poor Salary. 4k less that the avarage salary paid for a Team Leader in the UK. -Constant pressure and unachievable targets. -Dont care about its people. -Consistently poor, reactive and badly thought out communication. No foresight given to TL's on new processes, which are instead messaged directly to agents, which result in all out chaos. -Their Core Values "Kind, Honest, People" is the total opposite of how Go Centric treat their staff. -Looking after 2x teams most days (30+ agents). -No Progression. -No job security. Redundancy threat is always there due to the amount of contracts they lose (*2 so far in the last 6 months). -Your contract is not worth the paper it's written on. You can be let go in an instant. -Never thanked, never recognised and success never celebrated, (*Not once has a "thank you" or "Well done" been given to all staff directly from higher management in over a year) . Dont get me started on their (every 6 month) excuse of an awards show where around 4 out of 600 staff, get a A4 certificate of nothingness. -Ridiculously high staff and TL turnover. -Mental health. They talk a good game but are never accomadating when someone is actually suffering. -No sickpay -No OT for Team Leaders, and we don't get time back when held back at night. -OT for agents is always standard time, no extras. -Shifts changes are non stop with very little notice Unfortunately this list could go on and on.

Pros

Pay is ok Work from home

Cons

Constant changes to rota Too mant chiefs Kpi is the most important rather than customer Often no help for a query as everyone is busy. Team leaders are expected to work outside their contrated hours Equipment provided is often faulty. Customers often left dissatisfied due to poor system, organisation and lack of management support Constant changing of guidelines (hard to keep up)

Thank you for your feedback. Any review posted is taken seriously and I would like to cover a few points here: I will agree, like any business the targets or goals we have in place are important, however, these are in place to help us deliver a great customer experience, our customers mean the world to us. If, as an employee you didn't feel that this was the case then I'm sorry. We never encourage anyone to work outside their contracted hours, we have a WFH culture, and we always want our people to close down their laptop at the end of their shift. There may be some contracts which have change on a regular basis, however, this is in line with making sure our customers have the most up to date information, we have a variety of tools which are designed to ensure information is at hand. Our call handlers are our most important people, if it were not for them then there would be no go-centric, they are highly respected along with all the incredible clients we are privileged to work with on a daily basis. If you wish to discuss this review further then I am sharing my email address here so that you can contact me direct: Employee Experience Manger : Mark.Cowen@go-centric.co.uk
