Good place to work. Depending on which role you are in the wages vary quite a lot. Everyone is friendly however little room for progression. Would work in the police again.

Pros

Money

Cons

No progression

Productive and friendly workplace

Customer Service Advisor (Former Employee) - Grimsby, Lincolnshire - 28 March 2020

The position I held was that of Customer Service advisor. This was based in the Grimsby office. We were a small group of people who worked well and supported each other in the work we were doing.

No work life balance

PCSO (Current Employee) - Scunthorpe, Lincolnshire - 8 January 2020

No very suitable for social or family life, long shifts with evenings and weekend working, not always listened to by supervisor. Wages are appropriate for the role.

Domestic abuse coordinator

Domestic Abuse Coordinator (Former Employee) - Reed - 23 November 2019

A typical workday would be to sign into the police databases and email systems. Work on the medium-risk cases that have come in overnight. Research both the victim and suspect and see what came in when the call came in. check guidelines and email partner agencies (if needed) write a report on what has happened and assign a risk level. I learned how the police dealt with domestic abuse and all the parties that are involved with Domestic abuse cases. The work culture is very close-knit as other colleges may know the suspect or victim and can help with the risk assessment. preempting what may happen in the future if the wrong risk assessment was given. The most enjoyable part of the job was doing the research into the victim and suspect and the satisfaction of being able to help.

Not like they want you to think

Constable (Former Employee) - Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire - 27 July 2019

All appears well within this organisation until you can see the cracks. There are huge faults within the organisation, mainly managment and back office created. If you want to progress, then your chances are limited. Nepotism is rife and the internal application processes are changed to suit the desired management outcome. If you are unlucky enough to make a mistake, don't worry managment and colleagues will be lining up to stab you in the back in order to make themselves look good.

Pros

Wage

Cons

Work life balance, incompetent spineless managers

Always Evolving

PCSO (Current Employee) - Grimsby, Lincolnshire - 25 February 2019

Every day is different. You do not know how your day is going to go until you set foot through the door. You have to be prepared to drop everything, and change pre planned tasks etc

Poor leadership with no staff value

Command Centre (Current Employee) - Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire - 23 June 2017

Poor leadership who do not value staff. Unnecessary changes, unnecessary new policies and no respect for family life. Shifts changed last minute, leave constantly refused. Basic salary very poor, only earn reasonable money due to unsocial allowances. Too understaffed and under trained. Overtime rate taken away from staff. Constantly changing shift patterns causing upset.

Pros

Great team, interesting work

Cons

No life balance, poor pay, poor training and not enough staff.

Life changing experience

Rural Police Constable (Former Employee) - Brigg & Broughton area - 19 April 2017

No two days were ever the same, it would probably be quicker to list the things I didn't learn, there are so many facets to being a police officer that trying to quantify it is nigh on impossible, it was like being a member of an enormous extended family where the majority were always supportive, a great and strong resolve runs throughout, sometimes you wish you had never signed up because the things you see and deal with are just too terrible to relate but in the next moment you can feel absolute joy and a real sense of achievement and success through a job well done or just having been able to help, I would thoroughly recommend a career in the police service, as long as you have the resilience to succeed!
