Not very productive nor fun to work

Production Operator (Current Employee) - Hounslow, Greater London - 11 May 2022

They post alot of propaganda on social media but in real life truth is they don't care about all employees. Some kind of double standards. No training, no help or support whatsoever even you are asking .Working for long time for this employer but am very disappointed

They don't invest in their people

It was great experience working with the company.

Ground Worker (Former Employee) - London - 30 July 2020

As a construction worker, it is good to work in a big company like VGC because they provides you with all the information you required as a construction worker. During the COVID 19 pandemic, VGC provides good updates about the pandemic.
