Pros

Literally, this was the worst job ever. The only pro was that I was able to just pack up and leave after a week. Normally I would stick any job for three months to really give it a go but I genuinely hated every moment of this job the whole time.

Cons

The company is an utter sham. They drop you off in the middle of nowhere (outskirts of city) and send you knocking doors-they left me as a female completely on my own-no other team members in the area as my team leader had to go to a meeting in a different city hours away. In the interview they promise you everything and make it seem really easy. It's hard. It's hard to sell a lie when you know it's not true to people hit hard by the recession. It made me feel like a really awful person.

Pros

Nothing positive to say however this may change

Cons

I worked for the company as a student and was placed in company-arranged accommodation in Slough. The arrangement was described as free accommodation with earnings, but I experienced unexpected costs and a lack of clarity around pay. During my time there, I felt the working environment was highly stressful and unsupportive. After a short period without successful sign-ups, I was dismissed and asked to leave the accommodation with very short notice. Overall, my experience did not match what was initially communicated to me, and I would advise others to seek full clarity on terms before joining.
