Options Resourcing Ltd Reviews with Jobs

I worked for them about 3 months. You have to bear in mind that they charge a fee for making your payroll, about 18/20 pounds per week. They do not pay you holidays ... when you finish your work and claim your holidays, they tell you that they were included in the 9 or 10 pounds that pay you the time ..... if you do accounts you end up working for 7.50 an hour .... SCAM

Pros

nothing

Cons

lost money

avoid.

Labourer (Former Employee) - Devon - 9 June 2020

Desk monkey has attitude. Very vague with pay details. My best interests were certainly of no interest to them. They will pay you as little as they can get away with. They wont even bother to call you with more work.

Bristol office avoid consultant is a liar

Painter and Decorator (Former Employee) - Oxford, Oxfordshire - 30 May 2020

I would not recommend working for options person in the above office alex is a liar. Tells you that you get paid 180 a day but 12 hours and then you go on site and end up doing only nine hours? What is the point lying. The job role was painting and decorating in oxford hotel and I was travelling a lot of miles 40 at least. I am never gonna work for them

Rubbish agency

Glass painter (Former Employee) - Witham, Essex - 13 March 2020

All I can say is they are all liars! Don't believe anything they say they just lie to you to make money out of you and treat you like rubbish. I would never work for them again. I would rather starve!

Pros

Leaving

worked as electrician in Bath for options for 8 months. never had a problem with pay and they always came to site to make sure I was ok. When I finished they had a couple of other jobs for me but I had found something myself. would definitely reccomend.

Fantastic Recruitment Company

Site Manager (Current Employee) - Amesbury, Wiltshire - 7 November 2019

I applied for a freelance site management role with Options through one of their adverts on Indeed. In a matter of days they had found me a great long-term freelance role near my home. Very clear, concise process of registering & them obtaining all relevant qualifications / tickets and background checks. Would highly recommend Options to anyone looking for site management work within the construction industry.

Blacklists

Electrical Engineer (Former Employee) - Andover, Hampshire - 8 August 2019

This company blacklists and is dishonest about it. They won’t tell you what they’re really up to and it will cost you income, time and money. They don’t do it based on accurate information.

Non starters.

Painter and Decorator (Former Employee) - Kensington, Greater London - 30 June 2019

Typical agency, give you high expectations and then blanks follow...I feel half the time the jobs they advertise don't even exsist they are either trying to get clients from your references or trying to top up on the books for a workers force that they have no work for. I think all agencies should be banned, they are nothing but lychees.

Pros

You can use up unwanted minutes on phone

Cons

These agencies are the biggest cons.( Con artists)

Exeter fraudster

Dumper Driver (Former Employee) - Southampton, Hampshire - 10 March 2019

They are promising one rate ( verbal, on the phone) , with the "possibility " to work directly with the client after six weeks and the they delayed your weekly payment ( on the next week) and they change your rate ( lower ) saying "I didn't put on paper that ". Of course there isn't another job after six weeks. The manager instead of solving the problem is trying to convince you to work without the money. It is a SCAM ! The worst agency EVER.

Pros

No pros

Cons

They don't pay any brakes!!!
