i have worked for optima and did work not so far from home. but did not have any PPE provided. They had no time to find out my working hours.i have not seen them neither been invited to office even once that made me feel like they are not a serious company to work for.the salary was not advanced comparing to other major companies for the hard work.
Pros
close to work
Cons
less payment
Paid on timeGreat staffExplain n helpful Could do with more jobs from Optima. I would like to learn more & attain new tickets etc.They always seem to know when I need work
Pros
Good rates, information great
Cons
Need more work with them
sent me to manchester on a job , didnt sort anything out after repeated phone calls, STAY WELL CLEAR!!! the only reason they have one star is because i cannot give them less, these idiots will cost you time and money ,ABSOLUTE WASTE OF SPACE,
Pros
none
Cons
none
Staff are useless and didn’t pay me until a week of constant phone calls. Kept being told I would be called back and was never contacted once by them. Never working for them again. Was also told £12 per hour only to find out a week after working that it was £11
Pros
None
Most of the times I worked for them, I would say every single time I worked for them, they paid less then it was agreed. Every time I had to be stressed and had to call them to fight for my money. Every single time. Always.
Pros
you can always leave Optima and find a job somewhere else instead
Cons
low rates and constant cheating
Do not work for this people.... they will tell you the job is for 9hrs but pay 8hrs ! And they will £11 instead of £12. Dodgy agency beware they are scam .
I've got no complaints about Optima, I was paid the right amount, on time every week. The agent I dealt with was friendly and helpful kept me up to date with my job.
They are a buch of liars, agreed for a rate per day and got paid £20 less(per day) . They offer me a "long term job" in Bath which in reality was for a day cover for a guy going for a wedding. They are a shame for crane industry!
Pros
Good liars
Cons
Wasting people time. Respect is missing. Arrogants
Hi I've been working for Optima over one year on plenty building sites with different tasks as: keeping site tidy, taking delivery or doing jobs using hammer, drill,saw. I've learned a lot
I worked for them 1 day. I had to pay for the car park. work was hard and at the end of the day the visitor stated that he was working too slowly and fired me. the agency never paid me for this day for an excuse to pay me nue. taking care of these people, they don't knock for work, they only cost money
Pros
No
Cons
Never get pay
Dont believe a word this company's says. They will lie to you whatever the cost. Was told ongoing work with overtime ect and when I got here it was only a days work. They then decided to fleece me out of hours and the woman on the phone was very rude when I asked about this. She said as she dont get paid for break time no one else does. This is against the law.
I got work from them and more work from them. I had no problems with anything. I’m happy to work for them again in the future. As I said I had no issues just a good company
Pros
They got work for me
I'm a self employed Scaffolder and they always find me work when ever I need it, superb communication and wages always paid on time without issue, would reccomend this company to find you work,
Pros
Good Communication
Cons
None
Unlike other reviews left by illiterate and most probably fake ex employees, I have had a constructive relationship with Optima as a Painter/Decorator over a period of about 5 years. I found them helpful, informed, polite and a pleasure to work for. Their background checks are stringent and in-depth and well needed. I have been employed by them on 4 different contracts/occasions and have never had any problems. Recommended. Simples.
Pros
Good wages, quick payment
Cons
Shell company margin, but hey we all have to pay it.
I have worked for these twice & had no issues pretty good in fairness always paid on time
Not sure where all the negative reviews come from would be more believable if they could string a sentence together properly & spell
I don’t want some little batty man offending me over the phone because I don’t want to take his peasant wage...
Instantly turned down their work
The kid should be sacked and sent back to his council house where him and his family can leach our hard earnt money the way they should
Proper rat...
Avoid at all cost.office staff are rude and have not got a clue what they are talking about .they have zero regard for the worker.bringback unions and outlaw all these scabs.
