Do yourself a favour and work for someone who pays on time.

HGV Class 1 Driver (Former Employee) - Bristol - 15 November 2023

The people that get you work are good, however their payroll is terrible. Their lack of communication and laziness meant I nearly missed mortgage payments twice. You go to work to be paid, do yourself a favour and work for someone who appreciates that

A lot of pressure

Pure (Current Employee) - Waterloo, Greater London - 29 October 2023

It’s okay and the timing of shifts are nice but sometimes it gets a. Lot of pressure and they keep telling you to faster even though your trying your best

Extremely toxic workplace and Agency

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Trafford Park, Greater Manchester - 25 September 2023

You're hired by the intermediary. So when you get bullied in the workplace, never ever expect agents would do anything. What's even worst is that they will side with the bullies to play tricks on you. That's from my first-hand experience. This is the kind of agency you're dealing with.

Pros

nil

Cons

countless

Good workplace

Warehouse Operative (Former Employee) - Erdington, West Midlands - 21 August 2023

You have work from Monday - Friday, this is good because you have security and definitely know you’re going to work those days. Most agencies call whenever but this agency was secure and good management.- Good work hours- Work life balance

Pros

Good pay

Cons

Great company to work for

Multi Drop Delivery Driver (Former Employee) - Kettering, Northamptonshire - 8 July 2023

I received a phone call out of the blue from Pure Staff. I was a bit apprehensive as the company was so far from where I am based after a chat on the phone. I’ve signed up online and from day one it has been plain sailing you get your work text to you All you need to do is to confirm and it’s as easy as that salary payments were prompt on time and there has been no issues. The staff are very polite and talk to you as if you are a human being. Many thanks to Pure Staff

Lies to get you in

7.5 tonne driver (Former Employee) - Worcester, Worcestershire - 14 May 2023

Tell you 3pm finish knowing full well its 12-14 hours most days, then save their best rates of pay for when you say you're leaving! Just one of those agencies that'll say anything to please the customer.

Horrid agency

Administrator (Former Employee) - Trafford, Greater Manchester - 27 April 2023

Just be careful the agency was lacking management and there was a lack of communication. No consideration of realistic complications an employer might have

Class 1 Driver

Driver (Former Employee) - Birmingham - 16 March 2023

Drivers ,avoid them!This agency a timewaster joke, nothing else.Unprofessional management. They always cancel your shift one-two hours before start.Disappointed and disgusted either getting woke up with a tx message or phone call 1-2 hours before your start time while sleeping and being disturbed while on rest by being told your shift has been changed or cancelled.Also I feel that not enough is done to help the driver when numerous sites that when a driver is assessed on them work is not found for them even though staffline are advertising for driver for immediate starts when others are being cancelled!!!????.

Don't really care about drivers

Driver (Former Employee) - Telford, Shropshire - 14 February 2023

They make out they're doing you a favour by getting you a job even if it's completely not what you've asked for. Dodgy car salesmen type attitude. If there's a problem with a company they will look after the customer and not you, the driver. You will have regular work and then nothing until they need you again and then they will come creeping back with "we like to keep you updated". No, you do not. You like your bonus.

Do not use this place as even a last option.

Agency Driver (Former Employee) - Banbury, Oxfordshire - 10 January 2023

I have joined Pure Staff as an agency class 1 driver with the promise of ongoing secure work. This is not the case, and trying to liaise with them on the phone is very hit and miss. I have been ignored, not getting calls/text backs. The company almost gives the vibes of being unprofessional, unorganised and nothing but more problems than being able to do your job. I have lost out on 2 weeks of pay. I would not recommend coming here, even if you are desperate because you will be just let down by the fake promises on their recruitment ads.

Pros

None

Cons

No ongoing work as stated in their advertisement

Pure staff have a habit of booking you in for a job then finding a cheaper option and cancelling you last minute no point wasting your time with these lot, its like speaking to a car sales man, one bloke said to me after cancelling on me last minute, nature of the job to be fair and hung up.

zero

Cons

they want you to wait weeks for a job to come up

Not bad but not great

3.5t Van Driver (Former Employee) - Birmingham - 15 January 2022

The work was ok but a lot of times you can get cancelled. Also there is a lot of pressure for you to fill the slot when your not comfortable (good example, having trouble leaving the house in adverse weather conditions to make a booking to be told by the booking they sent drivers home who did make it because of the weather)
