Pros

The staff in inbound customer service were lovely.

Cons

They talk a lot about the People and Customer Charter's but didn't see evidence of either in practice. Also; poor management, insufficient training, lack of communication between departments, 40 hour work week. Was told that "you're not worth anything to us until you have a computer log in" (and could work), left feeling completely undervalued and replaceable, emphasised by the fact that senior advisors and management made no effort to even learn our names. Huge amount of staff turnover. Management don't seem to want to solve staff problems.

I'm truly sorry that your time at HomeServe was not a better experience. I would agree to some degree with many of your statements which is why there have been some recent changes in management and some significant investments in Banbury. I know that site is already on a better trajectory. I'll forward your comments on to Aaron Ali the newly appointed site manager. He is from my team at our call centre in Walsall and used to manage some of those lovely people you mention. Best of Luck. Greg

Pros

Great exposure and a chance at a full time offer if you make the internship count.

Cons

Definitely a learning curve as with any company so you need to speak up and ask questions.
