Pros

Fantastic and rewarding job Varied and intense shifts Fantastic Managers Great Training and skills gained Nice salary exceedingly good cake making One staff member anger to taxi drivers 😂

Cons

They encorage a backstabbing culture Idle staff get rewarded and praised Bullying & cliques by above before service users. They will set you up to make you look bad ie sending you to wrong postcode for a laugh. Very stressful job emergency service staff should only apply Team Leaders clashed too much Too much new work taken on without hiring staff. Your job will change when you have had a day off literally!! Macdonalds left in SMaRT cars This job is GUARANTEED to make you FAT! Look at the staff pictures over time! Mentor was patronising. Learned more in 2 mins from a female staff member overlooked to train. Rota confusion someone always misses a shift at some point.

Thank you for your review on your time in employment with NCHA. We welcome constructive feedback, investigate and put measures in place to ensure the behaviour etc is not repeated. All team issues are addressed accordingly as and when they come to light to make it a conducive environment for everyone ; we'll look into the comments you've made about the team you worked with. In response to your statement on the culture of backstabbing, I must say that, NCHA strives for a culture of openness, honesty and transparency involving all employees. And as such recognises the importance of enabling employees to safely raise concerns of malpractice, negligence, abuse, criminal activity, fraud, regulatory failures, misconduct or wrongdoing by anyone in the workforce. Where any such concerns are raised they are dealt with properly and promptly. In a nutshell, we don't encourage back stabbing. As an organisation we are accountable for what we do and don't do and this culture of accountability is fostered in our staff as well.

Pros

it is a job, pays less than you would get somewhere else but you will get some pay at lease

Cons

you have to fit in and play up to management very clickey and you will get pushed to the side and treated way worser if you don’t join in with them head office staff get treated really different to project staff the rules aren’t there for them just only used against the people what they don’t like no support whatsoever and talking to HR is a joke they do not care about mental health in the slightest it’s all a show to look good online there are senior jobs going on big money that never even get advertised properly they pick someone for the job and don’t matter who tries that person were always going to get it no matter what

Pros

Passionate front line staff and management (at project level), working with colleagues who really care

Cons

Them and us attitude fostered by senior leadership...project staff feel second class; pay and terms and conditions better for staff at head office. Values are for show only, often shared on social media / comms, but the reality is very different (particularly from senior leadership(
