Pros

Great working environment and team

Unfortunate experience with abysmal management

Public Liaison Officer (Former Employee) - Plymouth - 4 February 2023

Management did not know how to support my role which was created by himself. There was no inclusion with my role to the project as a whole. Morgan Sindall as a company seemed reasonable to work for, pay was adequate and work/life balance was accounted for at first, then penalised when put in place. Onboarding was scarce and no training available other than HR/SHE induction. When raising concerns continuously, these were ignored and then penalised for this also. I would not recommend this workplace unless you have no life commitments.

Pros

Adequate Pay

Cons

Poor Management, No Onboarding Support

Good work environment

Resident Liaison Officer (Former Employee) - West London - 18 January 2023

A lot needs to be put right by the team leader, as my role is a very demanding, especially the scaffold log and roofing log. The two register logs should be kept separate and be made easy access.

Pros

I do not have proper induction and training

Cons

Roofing job description should be specified clearly.

Poor structural company

Management don't see you as an individual. Just a payroll number .No support, no training, culture of shadow bullying, very poor management, very poor reputation in the Leeds area, very poor failings as a business to there staff.Mind set is if you don't like the job we can replace you tomorrow. Our way or not at all .

Decent place to work but salary is low

Not a bad place to work if you know what youre doing. You get a van, fuel card, supports from other trades/ co workers if help is needed. Salary is too low.

Unfulfilling place to work.

Multi Trader (Current Employee) - Leeds, West Yorkshire - 30 October 2022

The company run things as slowly and unproductive as possible and then puts pressure on you causing you to really work like a headless chicken to try and meet demand, as in my case my supervisor tries to put a heavy workload on workers and threatens with disciplinaries to try to make themselves look good but causes a lot of stress to workers as they are often left in impossible situations as 3 days work is crammed into 1 day and procedures of how you are expected to work often waste loads of time.Management is typically poor, when approached with problems, they like to respond with management talk or a do not care attitude. If you stick up for yourself at least a little bit the hours are good. If you don't you could find yourself working 12-hour plus shifts. Everyone I worked with wanted to leave, planned to leave or did leave bar 1 or 2 people, most are not bothered if they were to be laid off.Culture is them and us attitude supervisors upwards, lots of should of and could of speech (blaming/finger pointing) and in my case two faced supervisors who were not there to help and support you. I was exposed to asbestos at least twice I know of due to reports claiming none detected which was later found not to be the case, of course, this was all mine and my colleague's fault.Lots of calls outs etc claimed to be flooding or severe gushing leaking or severely damaged doors and immediate emergencies which 9/10 times turned out to be tiny dripping toilet leaks and sticky locks and minor issues which are always amusing but am glad to be an easy fix.

Temporary job cover

Telescopic Forklift Operator (Former Employee) - Aylesbury - 22 June 2022

As a whole the Morgan Sindall site was fair and well organized. I would recommend working for them . Welfare facilities are kept up to an acceptable standard, as was the canteen.
