They sign you up to work temp for few months but you only get to work December then they don’t need you but they still sign new people up for their agency
Pros
Nice people on the phone
Cons
No work for you
Excellent team, payment is always spit on and on time. They have many clients so work is always available. Great experience! Any problems would arise are dealt with swiftly. All the staff are really friendly and understanding, the cooperation is excellent!
I was to start work in a local area that I was unknown of and meridian phoned 2 hours before the opening hours to direct me to my work from my current location instead of telling me how it’s all my fault and should have checked beforehand meridian helped me get there great work and support from a agency and I’ve been in numerous agency’s this is one of the good ones they actually help
Pros
Good pay
Cons
Distance
Only listen to their supervisors even if they are wrong. They don't care about anyone else. I would not recommend anyone to work here unless you are looking for undue stress.
Pros
No pros
Cons
unfair treatment
This is one of the best agencies I’ve ever seen, the are so friendly and kind, they do so much for you as well as check up on you after a couple of weeks when you start a placement just to see if you are getting on alright.I would highly recommend meridian to anybody looking for work.What a fantastic company :)
Pros
Good hours and good money
Me and another guy was told we are to go onto Night Shift at a rate of pay of just over £10 we worked on Nights for a few weeks when we received our wage slips online we found out our wages were way below the said amount when i contacted Meridian i was told they had made a mistake and the wage for nights is the lower amount when i have worked for the company for 3 months i go onto the higher rate of pay the thing is my contract with the company was only for two months , pure con artists they are as much use as a fire exit door in a dinghy !!!!!!!
Pros
Non
Cons
poor wages
I started with meridian as a FLT Driver working at Alpla in Golborne. The shifts are long but they are rewarding. If you are an FLT Driver There is no hard graft You pair 2 of the same pallets up, scan them and put them on their designated trailer it’s that simple. It’s the easiest job in the world, if you are a confident driver who can keep up with the fast paced environment, if you keep your head down you will be taken on with the company.
I enjoyed working there it was fast paced I developed some skills and experience that will help me progress in the future. I was comfortable working at the till and speaking to xhsy
Suits my current requirements, much more friendly than other agencies in my experience. The process of recruitment was less painful than it seems to be elsewhere.
Most of the people I worked with were friendly. We would talk to one another but managed to stay on top of our work. I never felt stressed while working there and could always ask a co-worker for help.
I’ve been working for a logistics company in Yeovil for Honeywell aerospace, currently I’ve been there 4 months and am loving it! Pay is really good, really nice people to work with and get lots of opportunities. The only down side as I’m an agency worker my contract can end anytime. Other than that meridian is amazing and offer so much support! Thank you
Provides great trainings. Good management. Long working hours. No overtime paid for working in the office. Great annual conference. Amazing support team
I work for meridian not long time is agency very helpful,I was painting a school in Colindale was good experience very good management and supportive,happy to work as a team to make a good job and highly standard
They told u a lot of lies!! Today u are ok at work and next day they don t need you anymore but they still call another people for the job but in the same time they will tell you is no more work...
They don’t stand up for you. They don’t help you. You feel as if they’re against you with everything. There is little job security and because you’re ‘temp’ and ‘agency’ it’s as if they believe they can stop and start your work with no warning. Avoid.
I joined meridian over a year ago now and have to say they are far from the best recruitment agency I have worked for. They are always happy to help with what ever it is you may need.
You will be on a constant watch not aiding in mental health but literally sat down for 14 hours staring at someone. you can only go to the toilet with permission probably 3 times. you cant go outside prison for your dinner. they dont give you any breaks and you fight for your dinner. I was physically attacked
Pros
money but its danger money
Cons
everything else.
Whilst working for NEXT PLC through meridian I received threats to kill from one of the workers at next I tried to call the police and the company tried to fire me because I wouldn’t tolerate this kind of abuse from anyone, I called up meridian and they tried to resolve it but nothing has actually happened, Both NEXT PLC and meridian asked me not to call the police but as no action has been taken I have been informed by my solicitors that I should call the police
Scared to defend workers against alpla management.and everything is done by phone and text if u dont ring up on a friday for shifts u wont get anywere
