Team Member - Full Time in London

Poor culture, internal power struggles and inadequate managers on ego trips.

I had a bad time here. Reporting lines were blurred. One manager kept giving me work that was outside my Job Description, Person Specification and ability, knowing I would struggle with it. Another took work from me to give to a colleague in another team, as part of a power struggle. My experience of working at UAL really damaged my confidence. It seems as if the middle managers do not have their performance or behavior managed by their managers, and it should be, as it would stop a lot of problems.

Student Ambassador and Event Staff in London

on 23 November 2020

Great pay, varied shifts, well organised and friendly team

I work as a 0-hour Event staff and Student Ambassador and I have nothing to complain about. There was a variety of shifts on a regular basis, the application process is clear and information provided is helpful. The shifts are always manageable, sometimes even easy to do, the rate of pay is amazing, and the supervisors and managers are always friendly, helpful and professional. The only inconvenience is the changing work pattern, with unreliable working hours, but I guess this is expected from a 0-hour contract.
