HGV Class 2 Driver in Southampton
on 28 August 2023
Decent wage if you get decent round, otherwise average

Pay is decent if you do less than 45hrs per wee...

Productive and Fun Workplace
I only worked here for a short time but it was an excellent and fulfilling experience. The work was interesting, with plenty of opportunities for unique projects alongside routine operations. My colleagues were incredibly welcoming and enjoyable to work with, and there was good coordination between multiple departments/teams. Will value my time there for the rest of my career.

Sales in Yorkshire
on 8 September 2023
Hard work, but a great team
Hard work, but rewarding to be able to do something good for the enviroment. Good work life balance as no weekends worked and overtime available if required. Excellent team to work with, all get on really well. Sales are great and do everything to support and everyone works really well together. Only downside is vehicle issues
