Pros

Nothing really. Thankless job. Early mornings to late afternoon. Nothing but negatives.

Cons

Manager was a horrid person, Complete and utter bully. Place is cliquey. Work with some nasty sales people too. No support from upper managment when raising issues. Newcastle branch was an awful place to work.

Hays Response

I'm sorry that you had such a negative experience - I will pass your feedback on to the Director in charge of Newcastle and the North East for their attention. This doesn't reflect the Hays that I know so I'm hopeful that this is different to how the office environment is today.
