Review of Syft

This isn t a company I would recommend to anyone.

This isn t a company I would recommend to anyone.
The induction session is really pleasant and they go on about how the agency is pro worker but I have received the worst experience of any agency I have worked for in my life.
I turned up for a shift and still haven t been paid for it, I understand that things go wrong and mistakes are made but I am more annoyed about the lack of care when syft have been dealing with my issue. I called after my emails weren t responded to after the 24 hour advertised response rate had passed. When I call there was only one person who cared enough to try and help me and explain to me what is going on. I wouldn t be as angry if they would just keep me updated with what is going on but it seems that whenever I call they don t care. I feel like I was lied to during the induction as the interviewers advertised it as an amazing, pro worker and friendly agency when really they are like the rest. In fact worse.
Also the training of their team leaders/syft representatives are really inadequate. On My second shift for them, I had a team leader leave without half of the group he was in charge of to get a train back to London, Leaving us stranded and with no way to get to the train station, we had to pay for our own Uber to the train station so we wouldn t miss the train to London.
Don t believe what they said during the induction as it seems that they don t actually care about the wellbeing of their workers in practice.
