Beware
When I started the job the role was manageable and the atmosphere in the department good too. It was a mix of case work, calls and webchat and you were given the knowledge in training.Then the pandemic hit and the emphasis on quality of work was compromised as the department brought in temp staff who were just ask to take calls and had no knowledge of the product as they went through a crash course of training which was asking for trouble.I would get call takers messaging me about basics, which I received in my training but they obviously didn’t. As case loads went though the roof due to the pandemic a lot of pressure was put on the experienced staff to get cases through the door. Since the easing of lockdown, nothing has gone back to a steady ship and the majority of the workers are taking advantage, by coming in late and leaving early as they are friends with managers.You get your cliques who will be nice to your face but then talk behind your back. If you wish to progress, make sure you get in with the cliques as talented individuals will be passed over for promotion and people who have no knowledge, no people skills and blag their way through an interview from the help of certain managers. They claim there is a “blind recruitment” process but that’s only at the application stage. The waters are getting cold and an iceberg is in sight, unfortunately the ship is heading towards it.Administrator in London

Not a good place to work
Stressful environment. Awful pay. Poor career paths. Poorly managed. The staff that actually deliver the service are not considered, their option's are not taken on board when decisions are made. Audio Typist/Secretary in Holborn

An energised and worthwhile work environment
This is a fascinating place to be. Some of the casework was topical and working with brilliant legal minds was highly stimulating. The law has still a way to go to achieve greater diversity at a more senior level. The work is demanding and exhausting but that is why it is worth being a part of even for a few months.Court Associate in England

Bad management
As above really. Management very poor. Need to work a lot harder to be a better organisation and not to push staff into moving to other government departments.Administration Assistant in Salford
