NHS Employee Review
Worst job I've ever had
Administrator (Current Employee) - Norfolk - 7 June 2023
Poor managers. No processes (shouldn't happen in the NHS). High admin staff turnover. Huge workloads with tight deadlines. Dozens of emails not able to answer. Lots of responsibility for low pay. Staff expected to take on extra duties outside their pay grade. Rude & aggressive patients. Not a clinical role, just admin support staff. Fixed term contract only extended a few days before finish date.

Very tolerant place to work, friendly environment. There is no pressure to hit target. This place cares about people. You don't feel like you are only number.
