Dealing with Bella Bence has been a nightmare for me. I contacted her about a salary rise which I am entitled to. However, despite having exchanged many emails with her and having had many phone calls, I'm still waiting to get the money. I should have gotten this money several months ago and have been in contact with her for months with no results. She often says she will reply "shortly" but then proceeds to not contact me for months. I believe she is avoiding the issue. This is unprofessional. I'm fed up with this situation and would like to be taken seriously.

Dealt with an employee at the Ashford branch and she definitely has " no people skills " , spoke to her over the phone and her tone and attitude was shocking. I wasn't offered employment because I couldn't start when she wanted me too but to be honest I wouldn't have taken that position after that phone call. Shocking !

Not Covid Compliant whatsoever and is jeopardising the health of every company that plague bus attends aswell as the fact you won't get paid on time if at all but they'll tell you they're going to call you back and never do.

They were good to work for in the end but at the start I was sent to a place called ardo which is a hard place to work and I pulled my back out as the company ardo put me to the task of stack 12kg boxes ever 10 - 15 seconds for 4 hours before putting me on something else, I'm 6'2 and all the bending over and to pick up boxes etc was too much strain on my back and it hit me towards the end. However it was really nice working at the other factory called DHM plastics but because of my back being pulled out I struggled working full time and eventually had to stop working because I couldn't stay on

I had a good experience with this branch. MC found me a permanent job in January. I signed with a few other agencies but MC were the ones that found me a full time role after being registered for a week. A friend referred me. Would definitely recommend this agency to my friends!
