The lads are a good bunch, shame about the conditions and management
Contras
This company does not value its people. Management focuses on replacing staff instead of developing them, and the lack of benefits shows how little they invest in employees. The work environment is unsustainable and draining. Unless major changes are made in leadership and employee support, I would not recommend working here. High turnover, good hardworking people are pushed out instead of being supported. No real benefits offered, which makes it hard to stay long term. A forced “cover system” that puts unnecessary pressure on employees, an employee has recently been pushed out due to not covering and receiving a final written warning, he hasn’t returned. Another lad has been off because work put restrictions on him to keep him safe then wouldn’t allow him back when he was back up to almost full health, he has now been pushed out as well. These 2 were our union reps as well! They had the most heartfelt email sent around letting us know they have ‘left the business’ that was it. Management will be round telling people these people wanted to leave or he was ready to retire anyway, the standard response when asked why the turnover is so high.
