Never worked for or with him but I have pals who have. Their view is that he is long on words but short on action. Your interview experience would tend to confirm that.

All brought about by the previous CEO's idiotic approach to agency and compounded by the useless BoDs who carried on after her departure arrogantly thinking that despite the fact they allowed the idiocy to carry while on their watch, they have the nous and skill to repair the damage, whilst also trying to award them selves a VERY healthy bonus scheme (£23 million or in that region, as I recall). I feel very much for the boys and girls on the front line, whose hands have effectively been tied by CWD's "one size fits all" and micro managing approach. Whilst it is obvious that the current health emergency is causing a huge hit, the sorry saga of Countrywide does seem to confirm, yet again, that despite so many people outside agency thinking that they know better and can do agency much better than those working in the industry, the business is harder than they think and it is folly to try and run a large organisation like Countrywide without some "proper" agents on the Board. Shame on Peter Long and the rest of the current BoDs for their blinkered views.

And Karl Rusk, former territory owner, said: "“There’s heavy reliance on Rightmove and Zoopla, and there’s little chasing or sales progression which can let sellers down. Negotiation over price goes out of the window and it’s undoubtedly the case that sellers doing their own deals won’t get the sale price that estate agents could get.”
