Thanks for your reply. Apologies but I didn't make myself entirely clear. The roles which they are advertising for are not ones that have been flagged for redundancy, however I guess I'm thinking along moral grounds in a general context as to whether it's fair to send out emails announcing "exciting" news relating to "elite" sales teams whilst at the same time announcing alomost 2 hundred job losses across the group.

Hi All, My first post so please bear with me. Regarding the furlough scheme which has been a great lifeline for many including myself in this and numerous other industries. what is the general opinion on companies recruiting whilst they still have staff away from work on the scheme and secondly along similiar lines, is it fair and appropriate to announce redundancies whilst actively recruiting? Both aspects are very close to me personally and I'm very dissapointed if I'm honest. I personally think that the programme, to give it it's official title Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme is all about that, retaining jobs and any company who takes advantage of it for 6 months then announces almost 200 hundred redundancies should repay that money as they haven't retained those roles?
