ABL 1Touch Reviews with Jobs

Since joining ABL/1touch the team culture has been evident and better than any other place I have worked, everyone is always willing to chip in and help. The belief given by upper management in me is more than I have had at previous companies I have worked for and I can see real job progression

Project Manager (Current Employee) - Redhill, Surrey - 7 March 2022

Been with the company 7 years have personaly seen huge changes including new owners. The culture is vastly different to other accident repair companies out there, got even better when the take over happened. Lots of progression available personally and for the business.

Your day starts with a morning meeting for all staff and your told the numbers for the day and then you are checked on regularly to make sure numbers are being hit you cannot take holiday if another staff member is off also if you have time off for any reason your wages are docked bouns is rarely achieved time keeping is very strict even without a clocking in system so If your thinking about it ..please don’t They tell you whatever it takes to get you in the door and we reckon ABL stands for all bloody lies

Pros

Lots of emails

Cons

To many to list

Awfully run company

Staff (Former Employee) - Uk - 5 January 2022

Avoid, full of promises that arnt delivered, don't expect to be able to book any holiday as there is never cover staff, high staff turnaround speaks for itself, poor management support. Standard of work is the worse I've seen in all my years in the motor trade, all because workshop staff are pushed too hard to hit numbers! Its quantity over quality with this company. The blame game here is laughable. Avoid Avoid Avoid

Pros

None

Cons

A lot

Awful company to work for

Technician (Former Employee) - Littlehampton, West Sussex - 3 December 2021

workshop managers couldn’t run a tea party let alone a body shop. Stressful, unorganised, constantly lied to, dropping good staff like flies as theirs 0 respect for any workshop staff, not flexible with hours, forced to work unpaid overtime, quality of work is disgusting managers think glue will fix anything and lack any kind of work standards. They put on a nice front but true colours show quickly. The blame culture in this place is horrific. They cannot take responsibility for their actions you as technicians will be shafted for managers lack of common sense. The big boss promised to get us good managers but employed 2 clowns and ruined a potentially good workshop

Pros

None

Cons

Major blame game culture, quality of work is disgusting forced by managers.

Great Culture and Environmentally Aware Business

Central Team (Current Employee) - Flexible - 27 July 2021

I have worked for ABL 1 Touch for about 4 years and can honestly say having come from a large organisation that they are a caring and thoughtful business. I have experienced the Senior management team supporting mental health and approved therapy for colleagues and have really gone out of their way to make this a fun environment to work in and speak up. The investment in becoming Carbon Neutral is also a fantastic achievement and not only goes to show the thinking but also that we as a business are aware of our wider responsibilities.

Pros

Caring and flexible business

An excellent working environment

Assistant Production Manager (Current Employee) - Redditch - 27 July 2021

I have been an employee of ABL for over 3 years now, and honestly have so much to thank them for. Not only have they supported me throughout, but they have also provided me with opportunities that other company's wouldn't. They have always acknowledged the need for progression from within, and with me they have certainly done that. This year I was offered a new role within the business and I took it with both hands.From day one, I have had nothing but support right through, from line managers to area managers and directors. I can honestly say they take your well being serious, from work life to personal life.

Pros

Job culture, working environment, progression within

Cons

none

Supportive and commited Mangement

Production Manager (Current Employee) - Redhill - 26 July 2021

Having been with the company for a number of years now, and coming from a Historic Racing team, where attention to detail is critical, ABL is a great company that enables you to own your work, take pride in what you do, I have covered a few areas within the business and From parts to production, I have been consistently guided, coached and taught on a daily basis to become the best I can be, I hope for a long a rewarding future with ABL, if your looking to join the team or even the trade why look anywhere else, management who want to support you in your development, and even if you make mistakes in your learning ( let face it were all human), be there to dust you off and get you going again. I owe so much to the ABL 1 Touch Group! and even though we are growing us as employees are not a number, it is a growing business with family at the heart.

Pros

fair, friendly, adaptable, understanding, training, Supportive, culture, Self Development

Pay, support, progression and much more

Cons

None

Shocking management

Recovery Driver (Current Employee) - East Grinstead - 7 September 2020

Too many chiefs with too little experience. The blame culture is unbearable and the regular witch-hunts are not good for morale. Also the transport office appear to have no understanding of vehicle weights and route planning.

Pros

None

Cons

Long hours and no thanks.

Panel Beater

Panel Beater (Current Employee) - Surrey - 25 October 2019

was there since before the merger, always found it a very fair place to work, lots of good lads in the depots and management let you get on with the job. Could potentially offer a few more benefits to staff but overall it's a good place to work.
