Vantaggi

Great access to blue chip clients and the ability to drive your own role in your own way and delivery to the client.

Svantaggi

The culture is awful. Driven by a disparate management team who are blind to actual client and employee requirements, they hire young and naive employees with little to no outsourcing experience or awareness of the job in hand and grossly overpay them, mostly with no equality between personnel. Delivery teams, whilst mostly nice people to start, become quickly depressed, overworked and throw each other under a bus of office politics at the first opportunity which drives deeper office cliques and feeds toxicity. The management team commoditise staff and will drop them like flies and have are at the mercy of the Plc when it comes to budgets, so don’t expect any investment into people or culture development.

Thanks for your review of working with Resource Solutions. You're right about our people having access to some great blue chips clients (among many other industries, including financial services, legal, media and entertainment, pharma and manufacturing, insurance, professional services, etc.), and the autonomy we encourage to drive your own role in a way that benefits both our business and our people. That's especially true since the launch of our Smart Working approach this year. Starting with an assumption of trust in our people to deliver on their targets and objectives, it relies on our business working with our people to deliver the flexibility they need to achieve that best work-life balance for their individual needs. It's been a great success. It's one of many reasons why I disagree with your assertion about our working culture. We may not get everything right all of the time, but over the past year especially we have worked very hard to invest more in the training and development offer for our people globally, and also ensured we are listening closely to feedback to make the changes our people need to feel fulfilled and supported in their roles. We want our people to grow and develop in their jobs, to enjoy their careers with us. That sometimes means they begin as inexperienced people who have great potential, and it would be anathema to our values not to recognise their talent and nurture it, for the benefit of those individuals, our clients and our business. That's why, although I welcome your review and will take onboard any valid criticisms, I have to disagree with much of it. Regardless, thank you for taking the time to write your review.

The company does value work life balance however with the recent merger the team structure changed and the management team really needs to add structure to make it more cohesive however they only care about meeting numbers

Svantaggi

Management does not care in performance of employees unless they are not meeting numbers
