Ok work place

Used a dialler system that was different which I hadn't come across in a Credit Controller role before. Feed through the calls quickly which helped very much with the speed and pace of the role.

Left 2015 after 5 years

After leaving I have a better comparative and looking back Adecco was a good place to work. Managers drive the teams to get work done but with a fun element rewarding employees with team get together s and your inspired and motivated to be the best you can be. As long as you have a will to succeed Adecco can help you achieve your goals. I don’t regret leaving as I have learnt new skills but Adecco is the the only workplace I miss working for.

Pros

Good Structure and support

Cons

Parking

Very good work place

Very good company to work for, management could be better, but at all very nice place to work, i learned a lot of new jobs there, accommodation was alright, and a most important very good pay rate!! Many thanks for 1 and half years working in that company.

fun and productive

I learn how the packing of the packages was done. The hardest part of the job was the long hours and making sure everything was done on time. Management was helpful. The most enjoyable part was when you are working with your friends and new people you wouldn't think you get on well with.

Pros

working with friends

Cons

long hours

Nice folk and a fun place to work

Nice management and down to earth folk. Friendly and good training. Practical helpful and some opportunity for advancement. Enjoyable and useful work and interesting experience in a task oriented environment with a focus on relationship management and relationship problem solving that gives you a great and practical experience of recruitment consultancy.

Do not work for adecco

worst company I have ever worked for. Staff are pathetic and school like. Constant competitiveness between departments. Management can't tell there elbows from there back side. One rule for one and one for another. No consistent rules across the departments. No patience or compassion for employees who are generally sick. Salary rate is disgusting for what you are made to do. Payments are constantly late or incorrect No such thing as team work. I do not advise working for adecco directly or any adecco agency they are an embarrassment and you will be let down. Best part of working for adecco is the day I left.

It's the people that make this a great place to work

I spent almost six years with Adecco and can honestly say it's the people that kept me there. You get a lively atmosphere and it's hard to leave once you're there. Would definitely recommend Adecco as a place to work!

Pros

Nice offices, great people and camaraderie

Cons

Lower salary bands

Very Busy environment with scope for advancement

I manage an extremely hardworking team who are successful in meeting targets. The work life balance for a manager is not so great as you are expected to do unpaid overtime. However the people are lovely, the staff benefits numerous which adds a balance.

Pros

Great benefits

Cons

long hours

Salaries Are Low and Staff Are Cramped in the Office Space

I only worked at Adecco for about nine months, workload was very high and the team leaders was not interested in supporting staff. There was a lot of young people working there, I was one of the oldest as I was in my forties. Office space at Birmingham Business Park was very cramped and the layout of desks reminded me of a battery farm (i.e in rows and rows and rows).
