Support from senior managers Communication from central support services

More training is needed to get the best out of management colleagues

Rewarding work with people in genuine need of it. A sense of Community. Great way to give back.

Poor Managment. They don’t respect work life balance or personal boundaries. Lack of structure from top to bottom leads to low pay, overworking and a sense of abandonment from higher ups.

Amazing people to support Good variety Fab colleagues

Poor management Don’t expect rotas until the last minute Poor work life balance

Friendly members of staff. Organised

Work life balance isn’t too great

People supported and some colleagues

No recognition of hard work. Long hours and awful pay

People we support are great.

bad pay, poor management, long hours, repetitive work

Managers and staff are absolutely lovely, Flexible with work Helping Vulnerable people

Unpaid overtime (for managers) Stress Oncall means awful work/life balance not enough staff/managers so additional work for everyone

24 hour shifts,toxic work environment. Most if the service users are lovely,though and some nice support workers which you won't see much of as your like ships passing in the night,unless your with a service user that needs two carers.Undervalued,underpaid and unappreciated.Slave labour was abolished in the 17th century sometimes starting work as early as 10am till 11pm then sleepover to start again at 7 till as late as 10 or 12pm.Then next day you could do a 9 till 4pm.shift.All for minimum wage my advice is don't bother!There are better paid and all round better jobs out there.You won't be appreciated and it will affect your health as your constantly working long hours for very little pay.The recruitment process is ridiculous for the amount of pay you get it took mine around about 6 months as they are not organised

Bad management,some awful service users,crap training and unrealistic expectations and ridiculously long hours slave labour

My colleagues and the people we support

Management is lazy, uncaring and the lack of support is disgusting. We do long hours for awful pay and have to take on a lot of responsibility. Management seem to pawn their jobs off on to us and on call never seem to answer. The company is a mess and it’s all because of incompetent leaders and managers who can’t seem to make the right decision or just don’t care
