Middlesbrough Council Reviews

Toxic work culture. No support. Over promoted managers without enough skill to do their jobs. Boys network at the top. Blame culture. Lots of positive words about culture- none followed through. Hypocritical and nasty

I’ll keep it simple- you progress not by merit but by brown nosing and kissing bum. Management think they’re the mafia and If you go against them with logic they will find a way to push you out. Expected to do more and more with less and less time to the cost of your mental health and to the at risk client group we serve. If I was in need of substance use treatment- AVOID like the plague- you will be passed pillar to post due to mismanagement and made to jump through hoops whilst at your lowest ebb. The caseworkers do not want to do this hence the high turnover so don’t take it out on them, take it out on managers. If you want to get into the substance use work world, AVOID Boro council at all cost and go to somewhere with more heart.
