Indeed. Completely in keeping.

Lovely venue, just a bit too far to be practical for me for a contract.

What sort of a message does this send to the people they are supposed to represent who are out tilling the fields, working their fingers to the bone while those who represent their interests apparently have their snouts in a very nice trough indeed

It says "We are so keen to ensure we have the best talent in the industry working here to represent you, that we make our office environment a Great Place To Work(tm)"

I did a short piece of work there a few years ago. Lovely place.. swimming pool in the building and chef cooked meals.

Compared to my current gig (portacabin), that site is like a palace.

Interviewed with NFU for an EA job.

Called back to second interview - as a board member, complete with other directors interviewing me.

Exited twilight zone.....

Lovely receptionist on way to lift said they work you to death in NFU, but they do have a huge (weird) indoor pool in the building open to all in the offices to look down into see - heated by the servers apparently.

That is all. ;-)

They were a customer when I was a perm somewhere else. Went down for a day and it was a lovely place. Plenty of parking from what I remember but it may be different for contractors than visitors.

NFU Stratford Upon Avon?

Has anyone worked at the Tiddington site for this client?

Am interviewing there within the next week or so, but my only slight niggle is parking (or lack of).
