Demanding at a management level
Manager (Current Employee) - Hertfordshire - 9 December 2020
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedSafety is quite rightly the no.1 priority for staff in operational positions. EMCOR UK is demanding at a management level. This is usually driven by the high expectations of the client.
Pros
Good salary
Cons
T&C's not so good

Good company to work for.
Cleaning Operative (part time) (Current Employee) - Peacehaven - 10 June 2021
Really good place to work. Very understanding boss and always very supportive. Pay and holidays are good. All staff are friendly. If you have a problem it is dealt with straight away. I really respect this company, and you get the same respect back.
Pros
Happy company to work for

Awful.
Mechanical Engineer (Current Employee) - Uk - 12 January 2021
All about the money, don't pay suppliers. Not a nice company to work for. Incompetent management. No interest in doing a good job. Not to be trusted.

Typical large company ethic.
Contract Manager (Current Employee) - Wales - 13 December 2020
Another company big enough to not really care about its employees but makes plenty of noise about well being and care. All the usual corporate talk and in practice no particular action.
Pros
Can’t think of any pros
Cons
Excessive hours as there’s not enough time in the day to complete what you need to do.

Good company and on the up.
Project Manager (Former Employee) - South England - 25 November 2020
A company which is full of really good competent engineers, and Management who want to give a good customer experience. Management was not overly concerned with chasing the money but delivering a good service package. Some new management giving some much needed fresh ideas focusing on picking up quality standards.
Pros
Trust from Management
Cons
Lack of comms from above

Appalling management
Shocking management. Treat/spoken too poorly from day one. Hardly get what you ask for regarding PPE and then takes months to arrive. Cronyism for overtime on a MASSIVE scale, if your not in the managements clique of workers then no overtime for you.
Pros
Non
Cons
Everything

Very good company to work for..
Security (Former Employee) - London, Greater London - 3 November 2020
If you're looking for a company that values their employee, EMCORUK is that company. The accounts manager I worked for really values the employees. My line manager wasn't so much. A bad decision maker I would say. People makes a company bad by their actions.
Pros
Pays on time and a regular increment at the beginning of every financial year.
Cons
Could improve in listening to their lower paid staff more and provide support to them.

Disgrace and bulling
General Operative (Former Employee) - Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire - 28 May 2020
Have been working for EMCOR in Newark and have new manager RF. He have no respect for employees, he is rude, bully them all the time and if you stand up to him you will see the exit door very quick. Have stupid cow admin VM in office that is more busy on her phone that process timesheets or correct payment. Every moths wages are incorrect. The ex-Heathrow manager should fly away before he will ruin good company and all good workers quit.

Great support during Covid-19
Cleaner (Current Employee) - London, Greater London - 24 May 2020
Whilst many of my friends employers have not given much communication to staff EMCOR UK have been amazing. Lots of updates, CEO videos, HR support and Wellbeing updates.
I have to say that EMCOR UK have proved they do care about their staff.
They have even given a pay rise to those employees who earned less than ÂŁ23k as we are classed as front line staff. How many companies would give a pay rise given what's happening now. I have to say I am very grateful to work for EMCOR. line.listastaff.Howstaff.THow

Electrical technician (Former Employee) - Great Sankey - 16 May 2020
The job is basic maintenance but have to bend over backwards for the customer without any thanks.
A lot of stress due to incompetence off staff
Emcor don’t really care too much about lower employees only the office staff get treated with respect. Poor pay and no training not a great place to work anymore Glad I’m out
