Manpower UK Limited Reviews 

This company will contact you with phishing messages under the pseudonym Charlotte Adams asking ‘for a chat’ only to spam you with recruitment messages. When asked to be removed from their system, they continue to spam messages and reacted with a with laughing emojis, only solution to dealing with this company is to block them. Big surprise it’s got a terrible rating by loads of people, obviously the only 5 star reviews are written by the company itself

Rude
Pay incorrect
Left kept ringing me.
Put a 1 star on here.

Don't worry about putting this as a reply
complaints@manpower.. That was where my first complaint went and your clearly incapable of dealing with it. I have emailed you already but this xan stay this time. Stop trying to contact me. I will NEVER WORK FOR YOU AGAIN!!!

Manpower is a great agency/company. They are amazing. They saved my life as i lost my job to some stupid reason, manpower called the same day and gave me a job i love it here, thanks to manpower i can remain living in my house im so gratefull for all they've done thank you!

U work for them and they forget to pay your hours but pay your holiday shite agency

Ed Barnes was my consultant ( Ashford Branch ) and it was an absolute pleasure working wirh him. He is very attentive and always going out of his way to solve your issue. The journey with Manpower has been good. I would definitely work for you again.

I was contacted by Dorota Smith and she has been a massive help trying to get me a job very good manners and a lovely lady in general, I have struggled with other agencies but haven’t had a single problem with Dorota she is great at her job and her attitude is also great.
I really appreciated her effort and enthusiasm towards getting me a job and was a delight to speak to over the phone, there was nothing more she could do to help

Unlike others I have a very good experience with Manpower, (UPS, Tamworth). She has been very efficient booking me in on shifts in a timely manner. If I have a query she is very quick to respond. Constant. Supportive if necessary. No messing about. She does her job extremely well. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Met a really good consultant, by the name of Carla in Acton she was super helpful honest and reliable got me a really good job I couldn't be happier.
Thank you

Was contacted about a role within my area of expertise for a local company. Initial interview went brilliantly with the manager & HR, with a second interview set for tomorrow.

Unfortunately, I was informed by the HR person that it was a contract position through Manpower, not a PAYE position with the company I was interviewing for. This was not explained to me prior as I do not like working for an intermediary, nor was I given any prioritisation during the interview setting process (had to chase multiple times via e-mail & phone to confirm the interview was going ahead).

Deeply disappointed. I do not like working through an intermediary, preferring direct employment. Had I been informed I would be paid by Manpower instead of the company I would actually be working for, I would not have opted for the interview.

Really should do better and give people your full, prioritised attention with accurate information. Also, not being able to provide a salary range prior to interview is incredibly poor form.

Just too many red flags.

Have attempted to contact numerous times.
Always get the wrong person.
Always told will receive a call back.
No reply at all.
Avoid these air heads!
Just read some others on here.
Seems they are an umbrella company.
In short,you pay for your wages.
Any facing difficulties,should contact ACAS.
They have responded,with their generic reply. 87% 1 star. This says it all. Avoid this worthless company!

Would give zero stars if I could. I have received 3 texts within an hour from them. Each from a different mobile and I am not looking for work or have my c.v out there that I am. I would like to know where they received my mobile number from?!

Avoid like the plague.
If i could I would give them -1
Management is a joke
Any issues uou are left on your own
Check your Payslips - always something missing a £1 here £2 there
Keep track of your holidays one day you got 2 next day 5 the day after tomorrow only 1
Complains department- what complaints department phone always busy or they ask you to call back tomorrow then ist back to busy same thing in your local branch unreachable on a good day
And God forbids that you don't submit your timesheets on time as you will not get paid this week on as we all know this agency will only double up your hours so you pay an extortion in tax and NI and the best you can get is "oh no we are sorry and we can't to anything about it " sorry but not sorry and sorry won't pay the bils

Worst Agency to work for, I have been an agency worker for 2 years, holiday pay is based on a 52-week average (so they base your holiday on a previous years lower minimum wage)

(every holiday day i have taken is below mininum wage) unsure how they can get away with it!

If you have any learning difficulties or eye conditions of any kind that wont allow you to study through traditional learning methods youll be penalised and will not be able to access any type of Benifits, Discounts system like other agencys, Because unless you agree to take on Manpowers own courses its a no

I've been asking for nearly 2 years for audiobooks etc - to just have some representive saying they are looking into it and heard nothing for nearly 2 years, this company is not disablility friendly to say the least!

It is honestly impossible to get through to speak to anyone at this company to help with some issues I have been having. I am convinced nobody even works there... No number to call, and a clearly unmanned support email. I am only using them by force, I would never choose to.

Was working temp for seagate immediate family member died was sacked still waited wages 3 weeks later last working day was 5th its now the 26l7th and was informed it will be next week earliest these people do not care

My experience with this company has been extremely disappointing and stressful. They misled me on the phone about when I would get paid and failed to follow through on their promises.
Communication was almost nonexistent, they consistently ignored me, even when I went to their office in person to confront them. Despite being overworked and desperate for answers, no one was willing to see me or address my concerns. This ordeal has left me with ongoing stress, and I wouldn't recommend this agency to anyone.

Arguably the worst recruitment agency I have ever had the misfortune to engage with. On two separate occasions and two separate 'recruiters' I have been contacted about an urgent role they are seeking to fill, spent time discussing my skills, experience and suitability only to be completely ghosted twice.
The lack of professionalism is utterly staggering, particularly so as I too work in the Recruitment sector.
I would never deal with Experis or Manpower again. Truly awful experience.

Spent a month back and forth son phone everyday for a job they sed was mine but they accepted documents then when I phoned them they sed they would check it and call back when they didn’t call back and I called them they sed there was problems with items or someone left the company or my local branch didn’t sort it. I called after a month and they sed the job was gone and sounded like they didn’t care that I spent a month and money to sort things out and havnt contacted me since waste of time joke of a company
