Anyone worked through these guys recently? How do they compare to the rest? I've spoken to one guy there about twice a year for what seems like the last ten years, but have never had an interview through them.

Just finished a gig with them and found them untrustworthy. They initially gave me a contract for a year and 3 months down the line i was told that the contract was ending.Comment

That's the nature of being in business - you take the risks.Originally posted by roberJust finished a gig with them and found them untrustworthy. They initially gave me a contract for a year and 3 months down the line i was told that the contract was ending.
Could be a good pointer for outside IR35 though.Comment

Guys,
They are not trustworthy, they try to find your managers contact details to get new contracts, they harass your for only manager references. They always quote the best rates in the market in their adverts.
Not only these guys, there are few others try to get your managers names and their telephone numbers.
