Untruths

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Initially everything looks amazing - like the management and company cares for their staff and people and they stress on the point that they give their staff alot of chances

Cons

Management lies and uses the managers to be the scapegoat - unprofessional - no one on ones to improve, no feedback, gossip, low pay to hardworking people. Management only appreciates the fakers/ Listens and believe in gossip without checking facts. No work life balance - weekends and late night work

Micromanaging

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Used to be a great company. Great place to work in. Supportive management.

Cons

After a change of management, it got worst. Micromanage at a whole new level. Treating workers like robots where they can control. Tracked every movements like there is no trust at all.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review, although I am sorry to see the low score you have given us. As a company we do not have a policy of micromanagement and we seek to fulfil this commitment through the application of leadership through employment policies and procedures which are consistent and equitable for all colleagues, and which recognise the expertise and ability of each individual. We place a strong focus on listening to colleagues, with regular roadshows by our MD and operations directors, as well as undertaking Your Voice Counts (YVC) surveys to ensure every colleague has an opportunity for their voice to be heard. The purpose of YVC is to ensure that we can listen to and address areas of our business where colleague feedback suggests that changes need to be made, so your comments on trusting colleagues, micromanagement and happiness levels will be noted and shared with the wider team. All colleague reviews are shared with senior management, so that we can make changes where required. If you would like to provide us with more detail of your experience then please email us at feedback-uk@rentokil-initial.com Kind Regards, HR Manager, Rentokil Initial UK
