Pros

I enjoy the fast paced environment, employing approximately 600 people it still feels like quite a small company. You feel like a person rather than a number. There is always something different and things can change quickly, no 2 days are the same. I feel valued and I can honestly say I have excellent support from my colleagues and manager. Very friendly work crew

Cons

Sometimes feels like a barrier between shopfloor and office.

Pros

I have been given the freedom to make a difference and developed my career during my time at Faltec. There is a genuine desire by the current management team to improve and grow the company and to recruit staff who will continue to make a difference. Head office continues to support with high levels of capital expenditure on new and improved equipment.

Cons

The company is recovering from some difficult times.

Pros

Good workmates, reasonably good environment until it gets too hot. Good transport links, roads buses, ermmm handy for Asda and petrol

Cons

Corporate bullying, enforced contract changes, loss of company benefits, lip service to health and safety with emphasis on safety and health disregarded. No pay rise for years apart from 1% when changing contract to take two days holiday and sick pay benefits. Their idea of in creasing benefits is to increase life insurance while stealing away widows pensions. Jobs for the boys at top level.....huge pay rises at top level rewarding failure. Drug and alcohol testing for the smallest scratch and forcing people to stay for them even if it’s at the end of a shift. Long history of low investment in equipment followed by bad investment in equipment. Employment of agency workers leading to shockingly poor skill levels and almost zero training although they’ll swear blind that’s not the case. Claimed ignorance of employment laws. You have to phone in everyday you are ill BEFORE your shift is due to start so you could find yourself in your sick bed setting your alarm for 6:30 in the morning to phone in when you should be resting. Rules is rules!

We are surprised and disappointed to read such a review. We note that it is being provided on an anonymous basis, so perhaps it has not been written by a current employee, as we have effective processes in place to deal with any complaint or concern. Faltec Europe Ltd also have an active Employee Forum to whom employees can raise any issue. In addition, the company takes Health & Safety very seriously and all appropriate measures are taken to ensure the safety of all workers. We suggest that the author of this review raises their concerns with our HR Manager or Health & Safety Manager ASAP who will investigate the details of any and all comments made.
