Some good, some bad - IT Technician Linetime Employee Review

You will appreciate your next employer a lot more. They have a lot of ‘no shows’ for interviews with them so you’ll be offered a job really easily Some of the staff are nice

Appalling training – different departments leave it to each other to do the training then all assume you know everything. Very little induction structure, it was very all over the place. I would be willing to forgive this (with them being such a small business) if it was not for the Manager deciding to tactically trip me up just hours before a meeting they had set to fire me on performance grounds. Clearly she was having second thoughts (as I had only been there for about 6 weeks) that it was a hasty decision. But, she asked me if I had tested some software (Which she knew I didn’t know how to test properly) I said ‘yes’ which I had done. (incorrectly of course because of the appalling training). She conveniently took this as an opportunity to throw ‘Conduct issues’ due to dishonesty into the dismissal. I couldn’t defend myself in the meeting at the time because I had no notice of the allegations and due to my anxiety from being told I was getting fired… They went on to tell me they will not be recommending me in a reference! Worst experience of my professional life! Happy ending for me though (having an excellent CV from prior achievements) I got another job very quickly which had adequate training and a common sense management. Mysteriously I reverted back to the achiever I was before Linetime... and was even promoted within 5 months!…

Great products, great team, great staff

There are none to speak of
