work you like a dog, no management backup, terrible wage for dodgy work.

Trailer Fitter (Former Employee) – Quadring, Lincolnshire – 22 June 2019

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.

Great team

Cleaner (Former Employee) – Wittering – 30 December 2017

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.

Challenging and Demanding Workplace

Transport Planner (Current Employee) – Soham – 30 January 2017

Shift patterns are demanding, the 4 on 4 off is used. Starting anywhere between 6am and 7:30am for day shift and nightshift starting at 7pm working 12 hour shifts.

Management has many tiers and sometimes collides.

Hardest part of the job is the continual changing of the goalposts, although colleagues are supportive and training is done on the job.

Most enjoyable part of the job is when the plan you put together gets utilised to it's full capacity.

Pros

Strong Support Network in the Company

Cons

Long Hours, Weekend Working
