Moorfields Eye Hopsital Reviews

There is most definitely a bullying culture within Moorfields - from lower banded roles all the way up to senior management. I was bullied by a senior manager who happened to be my line manager, resulting in a period of ill health - I did not feel that the trust offered adequate support for me to raise my concerns. I am of the opinion that senior members of staff across the trust [whether it be corporate or operational] are complicit in covering up bullying behaviour from their senior colleagues and not taking allegations seriously for fearing that it could rock the boat. When I felt I could finally speak up, I was offered mediation! Mediation to sit in a room with someone who had made me feel psychically unwell and put me in a period of bad health - I did not feel, and still do not feel, that my concerns have been taken seriously. Job roles are vacated by staff moving but are not open to applicants - staff are being moved into roles without interviewing.

She wouldn't let me join in with her conversations especially with this other girl and would tell me off for talking but yet she was always talking to this other girl about things that weren't related to work. It got to the point I couldn't stand coming to work and was very glad when we started working from home. She made it clear in her actions that she didn't trust me and would not let me implement new ideas. She was awkwardly quiet when it was just us which made it feel like she just didn't like me and didn't want to engage with me but when she spoke to the other girl she was all of a sudden in a better mood and wanted to speak to her. It wasn't always like this, for the first year I really enjoyed working here and felt like my manager was on my side. Although still sometimes I would feel she did not want to engage with me on a personal level but she was still professional. All this went out of the window when the new girl arrived and this is when her behaviour started
