Cleaning Operative (Former Employee) – Birmingham – 23 July 2017
Majority of the managers didn't have the qualifications and experience to be managers. Some of them will try to intimidate you. The line manager was the most incompetant.
All this doesn't matter now as they've lost the contract to clean New Street Station.
Pros
Experience, good overtime pay
Cons
Incompetant line manager, no room for progression as they only promote family memebers and violent staff memebers.
cleaner (Former Employee) – Derbyshire – 19 July 2017
I worked for 2 weeks and gave them ALL my details national insurance number,divorce papers,utility bills ,hospital letters prov,driving license, bank card ...still not enough they wanted me to get copy's of marriage certificates. Didn't feel happy about giving the marriage papers as I would have to pay for them (copy's) ..so I was told I will not get paid till I give them what they want ,they said what difference will it make to me to give them the papers!!! I returned the question,no answer was given. I called action fraud,they were very interested ,so my advice is do the same call action fraud if you have given them all your info and your still not getting paid.
I was back from China and doing this job. It's not my favorite job but have to do it for more work experience and support my daily life while I'm pregnant. It's a very busy working environment and I was in charge of cleaning job not only in office but also all the shop(Homebase) I need make sure the showroom meet the most appropriate condition.

Domestic Assistant (Former Employee) – London – 11 July 2017
Little pay for a lot of hard work. Managers never around supervises take advantage if you are a hard worker and will ask you to do more work then you should.
Good company to work with just not enough support from management/leadership. Support for employees needs to be the focus. No bonuses or incentives. Common problem: Sick pay haven't been paid on time which is unacceptable.
Worked very long hours - 12 hour days. Little reward. Overtime worked every day - no additional pay. Company suspected wrong doing when I was working late up until midnight and gone. No respect - at times.
Unfortunately DBC went in to administration whilst i was on maternity leave. Such a shame as great company and great team. Have missed working there. Moved to Interserve when returning from maternity.
Cleaner (Current Employee) – SSE Perth – 26 June 2017
Wouldn't recommend for long term employment. There is lack of equipment to get the job done. There is no checking of standards and has even been forms of bullying by supervisors and management. It is made bearable due to the nice environment provided by SSE and by the hourly rate which is good for the current climate in this type of work.
Supervisor (Former Employee) – Brighton, East Sussex – 19 June 2017

Helping Hand (Former Employee) – slough – 12 June 2017
leant more then I knew before, leant about plumbing. Leant how to fit a bath and leant about plumbing as well I enjoyed learning how the company work the management, the employees, customers. The most enjoyable part of the job was getting to know other people and how they worked. The hardest part of the job was learning how to fit a bath in a small room could not see what the worker was doing.
Various Positions (Former Employee) – United Kingdom – 12 June 2017
As I have not worked for them in over 10 years it would be not be fair of me to write a positive or negative review, All I can say is that they were a good company to work for when I was employed.

Early Morning Cleaner (Former Employee) – Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire – 31 May 2017
Worked as an early morning cleaner in a local retail store, milton keynes. I found the supervisor to be uneducated and extremly racist, so if you are foreign or of an ethnic persuasion then don't work for them.
