Pros

There are no positives about working here

Cons

The level of bullying and verbal aggression by the PDMs in this company is out of control. They will shout at you in a very aggressive manner for the slightest things. It is actually embarrassing to watch even if you are on the receiving end of it. They foam at the mouth as they lose control. If PDMs did this in public they would be arrested. Unfortunately, these PDMs have no skills in management. The feminisation of management in Ingeus has led to poor performance and high attrition rates since its inception. Some of the recent PDM, including the ones that have been asked to leave recently are scum. The clients have very little chance of securing work. 95% of the are unemployable. The targets are too high given low caseloads and the poor quality clients. Working at Ingeus made me poorly. This is the worst job I have ever had.

Pros

The people who work there were brilliant, supported each other all the time as everyone was in the same boat , worrying about they're job safety

Cons

The place is run like an absolute shambles, ethics and morals are questionable! Management are bullies and extremely passive aggressive. When practically the whole office has or has been off with stress or are having anxiety attacks maybe it would be a good time to have a look at the cause of this, they act like it's the norm. It's a disgrace. There's no 121 support given and the targets are very unachievable with pretty much the whole office on red or amber. Constantly threatened with the PSP process which they fail to adhere to themselves. The PIP should be the first thing your put on to help and support you and ultimately to avoid ever hittitng the PSP Process, that is avoided and for those that ever were put on a PIP they were on their own with it, no help from the management. Unfortunately their PSP process ends up putting there own employees back into the welfare system by sacking them and then they're having to sign on...contradictory? I would not have a problem with the PSP process if you had the help you were told you would get to try and pull you through it but thats non- existent. I went into the job wanting to help people unfortunately I realised that it's all about what they get paid to keep clients in work, the management couldn't care less about the clients, such a shame as the advisors truly do , they're made to push them Into any role so that they can claim a job start even when it could be putting them in a worse situation. If the client dis-engages with ingeus because they are working they get you to constantly phone them and send letters and then go out and do a home-visit banging on their doors trying to get the job details....that's harassment and why? Because they want their money. So glad to be out of it , I would not recommend this company at all. There's so much more to say but I've said enough. It's a house of cards and it's starting to fall down. Treat your staff with respect and look after then and you may achieve more!

Awful place to work

Pros

Getting paid a decent salary, although I understand all salaries are being lowered.

Cons

The job is sold to you as "rewarding" and "helping people" but for the most part, advisors are made to bully their clients into accepting jobs they don't want in order to hit their own targets. Managers are VERY inexperienced, unhelpful and have no idea what they are doing. There is absolutely no scope to progress there and most of the clients really are the dregs of society - rude, lazy, dirty and with no ambition or drive.
