I was a contractor so they needed someone to help with a crisis matter for a short time to enable them to continue with their work load. Systems are good, management are very supportive and work flow was quite managable.
Pros
systems, management, staff and salary
Cons
on personal biases, its the distance from where I live
there is no help available make every day difficult no taring available don't get support when you needs keep changing management work on weekends and week days
Pros
no free lunch
Cons
8to7
The team worked well with each other and everyone shared ideas equally. The management was very nice and friendly. There was a nice atmosphere at work.
The union is running the company by bullying tactics used on people that don’t agree with there wants. The union Stuart's only care about what they want not what is right for Newham tenants. The Council need to toughen up and Say NO to the Unions weekly requests for a easy life and tell them to move forward with the rest of the industry
Worked for a sub company for newham council as a delivery driver part time with a regular route and routine I was on time for all delivery. No problem then a colleague resigned and without notice I was given his round with the same start and finish time for no extra money I was obviously late for some delivery and got blened for being late by the clients so I resigned
Worse place to work
Would rather be unemployed then work there
Manager is horrible
Don’t train you and disgustingly threat
Would never work here even if they pay me double
I love doing this job this is because when I work I’m always energetic and always one hundred percent to work I always try my best at work and get along with the other workers and help each other as a team
Jobs at Newham Council
You cannot trust anyone in this council as they do not recognise or reward those that deserve it instead it is who they know gets up the ladder and it is all about favouritism. Not a single staff is happy working for this council
There would be a meeting every morning and we were put into small groups. This helped me become punctual and meet deadlines as efficiently as possible, as well as this it also helped me work in small teams and large teams where we would have to communicate constantly to solve problems of different levels.
A Productive and excellent employer. Have lots of benefits on site canteen lots of areas to sit and have meetings or chat. Beautiful building with friendly people.
Pros
Smart working
Cons
Distance
Newham Council was a great place to work before the redundancies started. I'm not sure how it is now but it was a great place to work. As I was working with a number of schools in the Borough most of my time was spent out of the office delivering training sessions and attending meetings.
I work a newham council for about 5 years now they took me on as an agency first of all then after 3 years I was taken on at full time the management team the senior management team very good work with and always there to help
Every child can achieve their highest potential with the help of tutors who are doing their best to deliver excellent tuition to them. With a little bit more help the company could be well organised. Maybe they should provide more opportunities for admin workers to help tutors out. Communication between tutors and office can be improved. Excellent opportunity both for children and tutors to become wonderful musicians.
This was a work experience. We went to the street of Newham to promote Diabetes awareness as it was diabetes awareness month.
We also visited different centre, including GP surgery to speak to the patients about diabetes awareness and how to manage it
I enjoyed working at Newham council as the work environment was very secure and excellent. The colleagues and managers also make you feel very welcomed as well as show you around and help you when you need it.
Pros
Easy work
Cons
Travel
I like the hours I work with because I go home to 4 girls and I do enjoy the people I work around with as well, I’ve learn how work good alone with people n try to enjoy it at the same time you work hard
This job allows me to work at my own pace, it's a good job and I wouldn't complain, would recommend to others.It's calm to work inside this environment.
working for all the different heads and headmistress was most of the time a pleasure and the different types of schools meant you had new jobs to do at all the schools
Pros
different jobs every day
Cons
on call 24/7
