Pros

- SMT are welcoming and approachable. One of our promises is Date to Care, this is shown daily by the Frontline people who talk to our Customers day in and day out. If we cant help them then we will go out of our way TO help them. What other company does this? - Engagement within Homeserve is great with over 81% of our people saying so. THey set a goal that by 2020 we wanted 80% engagement - Guess what - Smashed it! - Treated as humans and not a number

Cons

- Nothing really - When you love somewhere you just love somewhere.

Thank you for the review. I attended a breakfast meeting with our Water Supply Pipe engineers in Exeter this week - it was great to catch up with those guys and listen to their views. They were excited about the new gas leak detection equipment we've purchased. We've made some great changes recently, but we're always looking to improve even further for our People. Thanks for all the hard work keeping our Customers happy.

Pros

They are great for customers and the way they want to keep customers is honest, that's were it ends. They know how to sell.

Cons

Mind games with staff, pick you up and drop you when it suits them, treat you like your disposable, and expect you to cower in fear, many of us are emotionally beaten by all the indirect bully tactics. This is senior management in Walsall especially through to all managers.

Hello, My name is Aaron Ali and I joined the Banbury team as Head of Customer Deployment a couple of weeks ago. First of all I’m really sorry that you are feeling the way you are. We spend so much of our life at our place of work and its my and the teams responsibility to make that time here as easy and pleasing as possible. It seems we haven’t done a great job of that in the past and this is one of the reasons I have moved over from the Walsall team to here. I’m pleased that you recognise that Homeserve is great for our Customers but I’m determined that this is no different to the way we treat our People particularly in our Banbury site. I would be very willing to meet with you to talk through your concerns. It would be a good opportunity to share some of the work we are doing to put things right but also get your feedback on what else we should consider to make Homeserve Banbury the great place to work I know it can be. It was tough in Walsall a few years ago too and a lot of hard work went in to turning that around, I’m sure with the same energy from all of us we can do the same here. Best Regards Aaron
