Options Resourcing Ltd Employee Reviews

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

Dissapointed

Labourer (Former Employee) - Birmingham, West Midlands - 25 April 2023

Don`t trust them. Said job is for a few months, sacked after few days. Working in partnership with a bad company. Nothing enjoyable. Job as labourer, but working as a demolition labourer

Money grabbers

General Labourer (Former Employee) - Bangor, Gwynedd - 16 March 2023

Like the other reviews, they take far too much money out of your wage. The advertised hourly rate for each job does not take into account how much they take from you, and they do take a good chunk, the most I've ever experienced. Also, make out like their being good chucking literally a few quid every few weeks for holiday in your pay, of course after they've had a fat chunk of your wage! Extortion merchants.

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.

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!

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.

Labourer, Had to sue them to get my money.

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.
