For reference, Gamma Group are a well known bunch of evil bastards in the UK. Nothing they do is considered honorable. Literally nothing. They also pretty much have a license to do what the hell they like under government mandate as a lot of things they do are actually pretty much illegal if someone founded a startup to do it today.

It says everything about the place when I had my CV put forward by an agent a few years ago for a "high tech position" in the "expanding data sector". Wouldn't reveal who it was to start with due to an NDA. Moment I got told who it was, it was "fuck off". And you know what I got stick from the agent for actually having some ethics. Clearly it's not common these days otherwise outfits like that wouldn't have any staff.

Then again they seem to groom people without experience or understanding of exactly what they do at university job fairs.

I await my bag and tag for criticising them.

> actually pretty much illegal

Not at all. This is like saying weapons manufacturing is illegal, just because they can be used for committing murder. As for Gamma Group being 'evil' that's also a bit of an overstatement. I don't want to get into a huge ethical debate here, but the principle is that tools are morally neutral, their users or mis-users are the ones that should be criticised.

At some point it becomes the bully on the playground, holding your arm and hitting you with it, chanting 'stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!'

Weapons manufacturing in bulk for sale to anybody with cash can be called evil, with good reason.
