Highly Professional

Giant has been managing my contract payroll for the last few months. The onboarding experience was highly professional. The various levels of Umbrella services offered by Giant are useful for varied needs. The support staff are very responsive.

I’ve been with a few umbrella companies over the course of my interim journey.
Giant, on balance are the first who actively look after their off-payroll resource.
Whilst not perfect they fulfil their function as the go-between to enable workers to deliver their service to clients very well.

There were some communication issues, and the websites are very unclear with what they actually need. Some emails were contradictory, additionally the request for contact on the website does not work. The individuals I interacted with were very helpful, and once the information was sorted out, Nazmul Ahmed correctly filled out my information and was generally helpful.

Do not use, dishonest, unreliable do not provide important information.

The process with giant has shown them to be dishonest, the service is Unprofessional. You will be given different information from different people depending on who you are talking to. They told me they are unable to make reasonable adjustments when I requested the handbook being sent out via post and suggested I go somewhere and print it as I didn’t not ask got it before, no understanding. They make it the employees problem. They have not provided me with the information I needed from the start. The communication is rude and difficult. Please do not use them. Go with another umbrella company. I am suggesting the financial ombudsman looks into their conduct.
