Estate's Recent Activity

I am a Countrywide employee based in are area quite close to the branches mentioned in this article. They are talking of 4 branches in Essex from Colchester , to Romford, to Southend way. The communication from the company has been virtually non existent, and we have been promised updates. When we get updates its a lot of text, with very little substance explaining that any good business needs to streamline etc etc. As an employee who has stayed very loyal to the company over the last 5 years i am beginning to wonder how much better i would be treated at my local independent branch with directors WITH estate agency experience as opposed to leaders who have worked for Tesco, Next etc. Gone are the days of regional awards do's with a nice meal and drinks, gone are the days of the regional xmas parties put on by the company. I feel its a very sad time for a company that i used to really enjoy working for.

I am a Countrywide employee and have been for the past 4 years. I am seeing the company crumble around me, with senior members of staff leaving from all aspects of the business. This does not convey the best message to the agency staff such as my self. Very concerned for the honest people who work here who are not at the forefront of the companys mind. All Countrywide are concerned about is making more money for their stakeholders and if that means closing down 100's of branches and making cutbacks so we cannot even tout our local area with good marketing materials, then thats what they are prepared to do. Alison Platt and all of her other leaders are simply ex Retail personnel with very limited property background and this is really begining to show. RIP COUNTRYWIDE
