Sales Representative (Current Employee) - Nottingham - 5 January 2020
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedEvery day you're expected to be up and ready to go by 8:30 but could be sitting waiting for an appointment until 4pm. On average you only get 1 hours notice of appointments meaning you cannot plan your day. Although being a self employed position it is flexible working but personally doesn't work for me. Commision based only so wages flex highly.

So racist
Telesales (Former Employee) - Nottingham, Nottinghamshire - 7 March 2020
Safestyle literally has nothing to offer, not even a good advert anymore. I am not angry or bitter at them, I left the job I was not sacked. just thought i'd put that there before you assume its a bitter review haha.
NO ONE NEEDS WINDOWS AND DOORS EVERYDAY so to offer workers only 1% commission on doors they are selling for £2-3,000+ is absolutely disgusting. They make you ring from these folders (which is fine, that is literally the job) but with these they expect you to: cross out and block anybody with an indian last name. they literally call it the NO PAKI POLICY because they believe people of such ethnicity want, and I quote, "everything for nothing" which I believe to be absolutely absurd for a company selling windows and doors at such ridiculous prices.
when people ask for their numbers to be blocked, we had to highlight their name and copy their details into a NEW folder so that when we ran out of clients to ring we would literally just ring up and harass them again. we'd always give the people a complaints number but that number literally hasn't worked for years. resulting in LOTS of angry customers.
9-5 every single day for 1% commission.

I'll let you know when I'm in the office in the next few weeks and chat via email or something very flexible about working with them culturally very busy at work

relaxed but competitive
Driver/ Canvasser (Former Employee) - Nottingham - 15 November 2019
working with safestyle was exciting as a driver but was hard aswell trying to pick your team up when they live allover the city and then start to earn your act money when your out in the field. hardest part about job is trying to get customers on door to actually make a wage

poor company to work for
canvass manager (Former Employee) - Nottingham, Nottinghamshire - 4 December 2018
high pressure from the start and not just with clients, they constantly badger you when at work and at home.
Even managers can get physical if they are p155ed off, I had this first hand, being set on by all 3 managers because I wanted to leave and collect my outstanding commissions.
Pros
none
Cons
pressure.com
