Fusion Employee Reviews

A good place to work if you are happy in your position. However, there is very little funding put into staff development or growth.Most of the teams include some lovely staff, but the turn over is quite high as with most leisure centres.

Pros

Free use of facilities for staff

Cons

Career progression is difficult

Awful.

Assistant Manager at Tottenham Green Pools and Fitness (Current Employee) - Tottenham Green, Greater London - 31 January 2023

awful environment. awful management. too busy covering their mistakes and scheming staff out of money. every month massive issue with pay which takes MONTHS to resolve, if it ever does get resolved. very clicky. managers have more important, unrelated work situations which take priority over the business.

Pros

no idea

Cons

no lunch break. long hours. pay is always short.

Junior Hairdresser (Former Employee) - Stanmore, Greater London - 19 November 2019

The pay wasn’t enough for the amount of work you had to do. Also lunch breaks weren’t long enough, as you on my got 30min. Also some of the staff members weren’t nice to the juniors

Very large company all about profit

Aquafit instructor and studio cycling Instructor (Current Employee) - Wells - 9 November 2019

Fusion took over from Avalon Leisure in June 2015 (wells, street and frome in Somerset) I was an Avalon Leisure employee and very happy and content in my perfect job. However, Fusion came crashing in making it all about profit, working on skeleton staff, working staff into the ground, not keeping on top of the maintenance of the sites. Very poor management. Not the site managers fault, they have no power

High Staff Turnover in Office

Project Administrator (Former Employee) - Markfield, Leicestershire - 8 August 2019

Not a good atmosphere to work in especially when female Director came into the office she would turn on people for no reason depending on her mood would be a much better place if she stayed working from home.

Pros

None

Vibrant place to work

n/a (Former Employee) - Snailwell, Cambridgeshire - 16 November 2018

I had some great fun working at Fusion and the perk of travel was brilliant. It is a very fun team, and because it is such a small team you are able to get involved in every part of the business - very much all hands on deck.

Pros

Kitchen for making food, travelling

Cons

No advancement opportunities

Good

inside sales rep (Former Employee) - Lount - 22 October 2018

Good to work for - hard to get progression though. This is probably the case with all large corporate companies though. The people are nice that you get to work with though.

Constructive and community workplace

Lifeguard/Leisure Assistant (Former Employee) - Kempston, Bedfordshire - 27 June 2018

Good relations between all staff, general morale was very high and teams worked well together. Some problems arose due to most staff being young between the ages of 17-22 due to problems with wanting time off, but was generally resolved effectively by management.

Produced and work place

Team Leader (Former Employee) - Weald, Kent - 28 September 2017

Fusion as company offer a good produce as a company and training for there staff and have a high standard of health and safety, pay high salary if your working in the London boroughs, but this is not right across the board as in some local contracts depending on the location salaries can be lower as they are outside the London areas and reflect on this. The places are very nice to work as some of the site are brand new and like any new buildings they have teething problems and also changeless which is good because if you are starting with a new building/ produced you can mould and shape how you want to run it and how you want to make it inviting to the public to come in and use the centre and not just the public,but staff, friends and family.

Pros

being able to the facilities for free

Cons

feels sometimes like your on a bus mans holiday as your always there.
