A W Jenkinson
A W Jenkinson Employee Review
Lack of communication and badly managed
HGV Class 1 Driver (Former Employee) - Queenborough, Kent - 16 February 2023
I spent 3 months at AWJ, and although I wanted to give the company a go, it turned out a complete nightmare. I was promised £730 a week take home pay, and I never saw that pay scale once. I was lucky to take away £500 - £600 a week. They don’t pay you night out money unless you’re one hour away from the yard, and I spent more time tipping general waste than forestry. Everything about the company is miss led to just get you through the door to make up the driver numbers.
Pros
Non
Cons
Bad pay, no life, and bad management

poor man management and poor pay.
Class 1 C + E Articulated Driver (Former Employee) - Sittingbourne - 11 June 2023
Never paid the correct money and always over worked. Poor management, and would never work for this company again. Since I started working for them, I had nothing but constant problems with my pay and HR were never helpful. I did overtime, and the money just never worked out correct from week to week. Really disappointed with my experience, and would not recommend them as a company to work for.

Good job but depends on the planner
Class 1 tramper (Former Employee) - Queenborough, Kent - 26 August 2023
Good job and pays well and new trucks. Can be a bully culture depending on what planner you have. No work life balance unless you are one of the favourites who always got back first
