Great company

Great company to work for, I felt I was always fully supported by all members of the team and I made multiple friends throughout my time at the company.

Stable job

Very stable job. Pay is not the best but always a good environment to work in, offer hybrid working to help with work life balance. Some days can be the same

Underpaid, underappreciated, under resourced. Avoid at all costs

What is the best part of working at the company?The discount scheme, I genuinely mean this. It was an awful company to work for. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?The fact that they ignore the people best placed to tell them what is really going on. They won’t listen when you tell them you are on your knees. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Rubbish, we got a five pound per head budget for a Christmas celebration, generously doubled to ten pounds but of course travel would not be covered. Expect people to work extra hours for nothing. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Stress, trying to deal with problems that would be difficult enough to deal with if adequately resourced let alone when woefully under resourced.

Good management

Good management and they respond to issues within the workplace promptly. Overall I would work with them again in the future. Enjoyed my time with them as a cleaner

Poor management

Worked through COVID! No furlough in an empty school which I didn't get at all, cleaning areas not divided up fairly, lazy staff got away with murder, while staff rushed off their feet got more tasks put upon them. Shame because it's was an ok place to work for

Pros

None

Cons

Pay/staffing issues/

I enjoyed working for engie

Good company to work with. Far too many things I could say about my work at engie. But I just haven't got the time to say it all just now cause I have a lot to do just now but I will try & right more latter when I get the time.

Pros

Free lunch if on dayshift & good support.

Cons

None.

Very bad experience with Engie

Had a very stressful time at Engie because of the manager I had to work with he complained at every thing I did on a day to day basis even though I had good comments on my work from other people that I worked with I did complain to higher management but nothing was ever done to make my work suitable ?

Pros

Not having to work with my manager

Cons

Having to have meetings with my manager

Negative unhygienic office in Crumpsall

Office very dark and dull. Staff not allowed to communicate other than business related.Management worked from home, made own rules workers not so treated like children in school. Unfortunately the office was unhygienic and cleaning standards shocking.

Pros

None

Cons

Hot office poor ventilation and dark

What a place

Work is repetitive and boring, management have their favourites and the rest of us are treated like children with a nit picking way of pulling us up. Seems the management are on some kind of bonus scheme to give as many people disciplinary action in one week as they can for such shocking things as being off sick on the wrong day. All in all, the worst place I have ever worked.

Nice atmosphere but low pay

It was amazing place to work for. I gained loads of experience, working with very friendly colleagues. The only down fall is the pay.

Discombobulated

The job itself is easy, it's the people that make it hard & stressful, after 4.5yrs I've had less than 2k wage rise & still sitting at 20% below the average wage foe my trade, I've gad no promotions as there aren't any available & the promises come & go, same as the f2f, which are non-existent, job security is the only incentive to stay

Pros

Job Secuirty

Cons

Low wages, no incentive, no promotion

Great place if your face fits

Management and supervisors must have targets on how many people they have to discipline in a week. I have never seen so many people be dismissed for utterly stupid reasons. In one instance a supervisor sent someone home sick, they were then dismissed as said supervisor wouldn't admit to sending them home.

It’s like working in a nest of vipers

The work is boring and repetitive but it’s not difficult. However the team leaders / management are utterly poisonous - you will end up forced out of your job on some trumped up reason if your face doesn’t fit. Being made redundant from this role in the middle of a pandemic was the single best thing that has ever happened to me. I do not recommend anyone work here.

Pros

The hours are somewhat flexible

Cons
