Vantaggi

It is hard to find something good to say. They used to have a good atmosphere, and did care about their staff, but that has all gone now.

Svantaggi

I worked there for almost 10 years, and as other people have said, it is very disheartening that new starters earn basically the same wage. I was on about £18,500 when I left as an Expert Claims advisor, but new starters walk in om about £17,500 plus. Experience counts for nothing. After reading the first few pages of the reviews it is clear to see, everyone gives Homeserve a glowing report, except the Preston employees. Surely that must tell you something. The staffing at Preston is like a conveyor belt. They used to have a good bunch of long serving staff, but then they insisted on a new shift change, and a lot of long serving staff walked out the door. For the last 18 months they have been doing a recruitment drive at Preston, they come in one door and go out the other. Surely this level of staff turnover should also tell them something. People do not want to work 6 weekends out of 12, and all the bank holidays. And working anytime from 7am to 10pm. Amytime I used to complain about this, I was told we was compensated in our wage and we were paid higher than average. I now earn just slightly less than I did at Homeserve, but only work Monday to Friday 8 till 4.30.

Thanks very much for your review and thanks also for the ten years you were with us. I'm sorry you felt the need to leave but we have to do what we feel is right and, by the sound of it, you'd got to the end of your time here. I make no apology for us working to ensure we are there when our Customers need us but equally we have to balance this to get it right for our People as well and this is something that is always under review. I'd also say that we are focused on career progression and are continually looking at how to develop and upskill people into different roles across HomeServe. Recognising and tapping-into experience is a key part of that but longevity of service alone is not a reason for progression. Anyway, thanks again for your review and your comments, which are appreciated, and of course for your time with HomeServe. Very best wishes for the future.

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

Svantaggi

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