Lead Forensics reviews

I would start by saying that most of the 5 star reviews on here are manufactured. I was pretty excited to start working for this business after hearing the tales and antics that occurred. At first glance you could be easily mistaken for thinking it is a big happy family and everyone loves their job. They have an almost cult like brain washing approach to achieve complete dedication and trust from new employees but after a while everyone seems to notice the cracks. The market for the product is utterly saturated within the UK, more specifically, the type of companies that will actually become a long standing client and wont have to be pressured and forced into a minimum year contract only to lose money and drop off are far and few between. With this taken into account the plans to expand the company at an unsustainable rate go on blindly. Its genuinely quite difficult to know if management are oblivious to the direction this company is heading, or if deep down they know but are unable to backtrack and admit that changes may need to be made. The problem is, the whole company is structured around a seemingly unbreakable, adolescent, megalomaniacal roleplay, encouraged and cultivated by the directors who seem to think they are in Wall Street in the Eighties but sadly come off more like a cringeworthy Charlie Brooker satire. The company is rife with bullying which isnt surprising seeing as they have no HR department. If you are prepared to harass small companies with high pressure sales tactics reading from a script which was written by members of staff who haven't even picked up the phone in a long time then this is the place for you. If you are prepared to have no transparency or break down on your salary and commission to keep track of earnings, then this place is for you. If you are prepared to work 55-60 hour weeks being micromanaged by the minute involuntarily while only getting paid for 40 then this place is for you. There is a reason half of the team have walked out in the last 6 months. You care about KPI's more than looking after your staff.

Like another review on here mentions, they really do sell you the dream. Promising a huge paycheck and a good work-life balance. But you quickly get swamped up in the 8am-6pm hours (if you're lucky) and are basically branded as a number from the get go. Might be worth doing for a couple of months to get a bit of extra money, but the staff turnover is SO HIGH for a reason.
