Pros

Takes care of staff and puts a lot of emphasis on enjoying work. Company benefits are suitable and the staff really appreciate feeling respected.

Cons

No cons to write. Really is a great place to work and not dread Monday's quite as much! Con: no canteen, but there is kitchens.

Pros

None apart from I met some very nice contractors, whom all have now left Huntswood due to it being so poorly run.

Cons

This company are unprofessional and unfair. They treat workers like slaves, not people and expect them to be miracle workers to fix their mistakes. I must stress that I was a contractor working on the PPI Project at the Reading branch of Huntswood, I did not work for Huntswood as one of their staff. ALL the positive reviews on this site are from people that work directly for Huntswood, who are an a recruitment/consultant agency. Huntswood however, did hire me for this PPI job, and they lied about what the role was going to be, hiring me for one role then sticking me in a totally different role and they have this three month claw back fee which means if you leave early they take half your wages. Another point to make is that if you do not reach your daily target (yes, this is a targeted job, that is very difficult to achieve) you will NOT be paid. So if, for example, you have a really difficult case that you have opened that day and cannot close through no fault of your own you will NOT BE PAID. I found this completely ridiculous and truly unprofessional I really regret ever working for this company and would advise people avoid putting themselves through this kind of stress. Its really not worth it.
