Housekeeper in Sheffield

on 12 April 2021

Avoid

The worst place I have ever worked, lock everything away or it will definitely walk, housekeepers becoming managers with absolutely no experience and no people skills, another member of the housekeeping team recording an individual in a meeting and then bragging about it and asking others if they wanted to listen to the recording. No probation review or return to work interview because lack of knowledge on how to do these things. Made me so poorly working here just the thought of going in a morning, my advice Avoid, Avoid Avoid.

Head Chef in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire

on 7 April 2021

Clueless untrained Management disrespectful, discriminatory, zero communication, no induction

I was excited to start this job but realised quickly that nobody had a clue what they were doing and the whole company I had dealing with is a complete joke. Firstly they employed me as a Cook, the job was advertised as a Cook and the interviewed me as a Cook but then they gave me a contract for a Head Chef. When I questioned the mistake I was asked " so do you not want the job"? I said of course but why employ someone for a different job to the one advertised. The same happened with the housekeeper job who was really a cleaner just to confuse everyone applying and the assistant cooks job which was really a washer up. I was forced to work in a kitchen that wasn't legal and broke all health and safety and health and hygiene laws for 3 weeks as the Management messed up on the timing of the renovations of the building I was meant to work in. As a veteran Chef of 38 years with Michelin star training I was asked to go and clean the renovated house and make beds which is a first in my career as a Head Chef.I received 3 different contracts in the time I was there (1 month) making changes to the wage and how it was paid. And I was dragged in the office and accused of all sorts of ridiculous things from bad language to racism which is the first time in my entire career anything like that has happened. They lied to my face, didnt honour my legal rights of a representative or union member and failed to follow the recommended guidance from the Government. A disgusting company run by morons

Support worker full time in Birmingham

on 7 April 2021

Love my workplace, management is great,

I love working for this company, we work great together, any issues management is straight on to things sorting it out. Teamwork is great, opportunity for overtime if needed/ wanted. The individuals I support are amazing and like my work family! Issues around career progression not a lot of opportunities for support workers to progress without qualifications regardless of experience and how committed you are. Overall the company makes you feel part of the team, I love working for them.

Kitchen Assistant in Barnsley, South Yorkshire

on 6 April 2021

Decent job letdown by managers with no people skills

Met some great people on both sides of the fence. Enjoyed working here but unfortunately grew tired of having a manager with no people skills. Too much micromanaging over jobs that can be done by anyone. Alot of gossiping about people's personal information too which shouldn't even happen. The kitchen has had a high staff turnover.... I wonder why lol
