I work because if your not working your not living and I show pride in my work and like to get done what I started. When I'm on the job site I worry about work and what I need to get done I'm not there to make friend I'm there to get the job done and show a good worker for the company.
Horrible company terrible wages stay clear you have been warned . Hated everyday and only lasted 10 weeks which was 9 weeks to long . Management style is to bully drivers treat them like something they stepped in
Pros
None
Cons
Everything
Most people don't speak English and there is no communication between management and workers. This place was ok many years ago now its full off backstabbers and people u can't communicate with
Pros
Guaranteed work if u don't care what u doing and like to be a slave
Cons
Everything
Turners is the biggest warehouse in England which provides perfect working conditions. It provides great opportunities for conversion.
there I had the opportunity to work for a month and 20 days on a temporary basis

There was always issues with getting funds, management never offered promotional incentives nor did they follow health code when it came to TABC, Metro Health, and other inspections
Planning is poor but everything runs smoothly. You tend to be in and out on the road well enough. Our site had new fleet coming in which is nice.
Down side is that you get day rate and they will load up the hours. If you go over your averages, it's down to you to bring them down by taking unpaid days off. Do the maths right and you end up working 8 months out of 12 for a minimum wage job.
You're just a number and everything is done by the book. Not part of a team, you're just a cog that only gets looked at if something goes wrong.

Pros
decent wage
Cons
bust at seasonal times
If you want to be treated like a Muppet this is the place for you.When I started at Turner's I knew I would not get rich but they did not push you hard,then they started to change you could tell that consultants had been in first you got your instructions from a woman you can't tell a lady where to go when they start to pile the work on and pile it on they did people don't mind hard work if the company are willing to pay for it Turner's don't want to pay money rubbish one thing I will say about Turner's is that not all the managers are bad some really are quite pleasant to work for but most of the office staff like to get one over you but the trouble is they're not very good at hiding the fact.
Pros
Non
Cons
Lots
Work hard listening to your manager and do your jobs well be nice to your work mates don't be later for work and try not to miss a day. I have enjoyed working at Turners but after 8 years it's too monotonous.
Pros
Very stable job
Cons
Very boring
Lots of very low lQ people, it's really not helps as a person to grow up.
Pros
For free experience to gain.
Cons
Not unstable hours.
Turners is a interesting place to work. if your looking for somewhere that will throw you under a bus for a pittance then apply. if you want a place where your main job is to take tea breaks then this is the job for you. if you don't really care about your work or life cause the chances of you getting arrested for work done is quite high then this is the place for you. if you are looking for management backup you will be surely disappointed as they prefer to blame you, take your money and talk about you behind your back. Then Turners really does have the best team around.
Pros
None
Cons
Long hours, Terrible wage, lack of training, dodgy work.
They're good people no serious complaints. They sometimes do things that don't make sense but I truly did enjoy working there, I really left because of the pention wasn't what I was looking for in a retirement plan
A really fun place to work, with lots of different areas to grow, meaning everyday was a new challenge within the business, one i would recommend working for
Amazing job.Its is very easy work for young and old people. Good mannagers, not cold inside about +11. You work like in one place with another peoples. But low money.
Pros
Smoking area
Cons
9-12 hours
Management wasn't great. Colleagues were lovely.
overall okay place to work but job security wasn't guaranteed. you mainly work on your own cleaning, you have to be respectable of the people you are cleaning for.

Worked on BWOC contract out of Theale. Wasn’t run the best by bwoc operators or staff. Turners employees and management always backed me up. In that sense great first company to get experience
Pros
Monday to friday
Cons
Poorly paid
this firm was one of the best firms i had the pleasure to work for it was a shame they lost the contract and i transferd under TUPE to the new firm who took over
Pros
good firm to work for
Cons
long days

Pros
Good working enviroment
Cons
Nothing
I had the pleasure of working with them in a good team and I regret that I can not work with them anymore because I did not have transport to work....
Ive just finished my fourth week bulk powder tanks tramping.. So far so good. Well maintained tackle. Pay is acceptable. Overall im enjoying the work
Pros
Realistic targets load unload times.. Left to get on with the job
Cons
Maybe a couple of quid an hour on the pay (show me a driver that does not think this)
It is a nice place if you are looking for a summer job and need a easy money, but if you working in that place too long it just make you crazy. Long hours.
