Working at Parser - People Experience Analyst Parser Employee Review

Remote from anywhere, amazing clients, great delivery teams and flexible payroll options

No PTO nor laptops for contractors

There are not many positives at all. I will try... - They will offer remote or 1-2 days in office only as long as their client agrees and fully pays for the monthly trips abroad (if client is located abroad) - They claim they pay high in Spain/Portugal but not in UK!

- It is a Latin American version of a small "body shop" [trying to imitate bodyshop like giants like TCS, Infosys etc..] picking up work at client sites whatever its nature. ["9/10 clients are difficult..." in their own words). No it is not some special ML/AI high tech outfit it markets itself as. - If the client does not want keep the consultant, often they will let go of people citing "no other projects available..." - if they cannot find people another client within a week or two..." - They will usually try to recruit out of work techies, at low prices, so they can send them out to clients for a hefty margin. Their preference is Spanish/Portuguese people even when recruiting in UK;only when the client insists on local on-site presence, they will hire someone in UK if client likes them. But they won't be treated same as spanish/portuguese staff. They will negotiate hard on salary in UK knowing someone is out of work. - They operate virtually as small family firm which has no regard for employees. - They will lie outright at interviews about the nature of the work. Interview processes are easy for a reason. Ultimately, the client decides if they want the candidateor not. So this body shop does not really care too much about hiring the techies. Whatever the client wants we will supply!
