Pros

The office was 5 minuets from my house which enabled me to go home at lunchtime for a little cry.

Cons

This company employed two distinct types, real people who hate the management and pity the rubbish they have to put the poor sods referred to them by by the jobcentre on pain of loss of benefits and homelessness and starvation. The others are mindless drones who buy into the "self help book" pop psychology and have no power or status in the real world but get a kick from patronising and bullying the clients into submission. The managers are selected from the worst of these people and are truly unbelievable. I have never worked anywhere where intelligence will work against and make the job harder. I left without a job to go to because I just could not face that level of hypocrisy or stupidity any longer, I have never regretted it and felt like a different person almost immediately.

Pros

A team who truly care about making a difference in learners lives Everyone works hard to make it work and reach for 'Outstanding' An inspirational Director and Head of Delivery who understand the sector and what it takes to be the best Very competitive salaries Ingeus - Work hard to support the skills division and support our growth Ingeus - Provide me as a manager the tools required to do my best, an amazing company

Cons

Been through a lot of redundancies, however businesses are constantly changing and with change in this sector unfortunately comes redundancies. With this in mind I believe those who are made redundant would have taken a huge amount of skills and knowledge from Ingeus/Invisage to support them in another great role/company!
