Nationwide Care Services Ltd Pay & benefits reviews

Long hours but rewarding job. Hard to balance social life as hours are long throughout the day although because you’re doing long hours you only have to do a couple days a week. But you don’t get paid for all day, you only get paid for the time you are at a clients home. Any time traveling in between is unpaid.

Great work place

Health care assistant (Former Employee) - Birmingham, West Midlands - 18 August 2021

I've worked for the Birmingham branch for nearly 2 years, I've enjoyed working here more than anywhere else, management is very good and understanding, colleagues and clients mostly speak urdu( Pakistani) , they are very friendly and easy to get along with. Overall good money and good hours too.

Pros

Cons

The CEO is quite grumpy

Worst place ever

Care assistant (Former Employee) - Nottingham - 20 April 2021

This is a ZERO HOUR contract! and when you do get hours they expect you to work from 7am to 10pm! They only pay you when you’re at the service users house, they don’t pay for travel time so imagine being on your feet for over 12 hours and only getting paid for about half of that!!Management is a joke! All they do is gossip about you. Even with serious health conditions you can’t call in sick. Avoid this place even if you’re desperate for a job.

Pros

Service users are nice

Cons

Management

I have been working for 3 years with this company and have gained a lot of experiences through the years. I have had full support from my coordinator to management.The reason why I have stayed this long was due to consistency and flexibility. They pay above minimum wage, which is always a bonus!

Pros

Jobs at Nationwide Care Services Ltd

Moseley and Kings Heath

Bad

Support Worker/Carer (Former Employee) - Worcester, Worcestershire - 11 August 2019

Office are unprofessional. No respect for non drivers and put on drivers. Zero hours so not guaranteed. They pick and choose what hours they give, dont go by your availability. If you pull them up on it they give u less hours. One office member is sarcastic and sly... bully. Keep taking new staff... pushing out old because you don't get hours promised. Training is supposed to be paid, but isn't

Cons

Have to chase for training to be paid or u wont get it

Exhausting workplace

Care Assistant (Former Employee) - Leicester, Leicestershire - 18 January 2019

Poor management, exhausting and time-keeping travels between clients (management is not paying for time spent in travel, the money for driver's petrol are not enough. Clients are lovely, but money really bad.

Nice workplace

Health Care Assistant (Current Employee) - Birmingham - 21 December 2018

Workplace is nice and co workers are nice. Easier to get full time work if you are a driver. Hours are long and workload is demanding. But gets easier as you go and becomes routine.

Pros

Friendly Workplace

Cons

Long Hours

Run away from this company

Care Assistant (Former Employee) - Derby, Derbyshire - 2 April 2018

Pay is messed up ,hours are messed up , management will use you till you drop. Not everything you are taught during training is as it is when in the field (actual job) . A company where you come to get trained for the job but never get paid for the training. You don't get any payslip to check against the hours you have worked hence The company holds on to your pay a week in hand and pays you only every two weeks. Management is not professional nor organised at all .

Pros

Company does hire applicants who do not have a car

Cons

Everything else ..pay, hours, management messed up.
