Have to be in a click - Senior Residential Support Worker A Wilderness Way Employee Review

- once had great services, great managers and great support - houses are lovely - mileage paid

- managers pushed out for not wanting to take part in the exploitation of there teams and the children they are forced to take in by referrals - basically given to the highest bidder - operation managers openly stating everyone is replaceable when staff are leaving weekly - staff retention is poor, I don’t know any other company that probably spends more on recruitment and training that anything else - left in dangerous situations with agency workers who are lazy and useless - new starters haven’t completed all mandatory training before being thrown to the lions of children’s who wilderness are not set up for and the houses aren’t suitable - no support from managerment after incidents - no sick pay - head office have an opinion that the rsw are nobodies and don’t belong in head office. - your holidays are chosen for you and you can pick 2 shifts a year you wish to take off ( that’s if there’s no training, team meetings or anything else they decide is mandatory that week) - pay hasn’t met with other companies in years - exit interview is a feedback form, no actual communication from anyone - payroll is removed when leaving - training certificates have to be asked for - pay is always wrong and trying to run a house with no money is hard enough without having to travel over 100 miles for work

I truly enjoy my role and enjoy the fast-paced, busy environment it offers. It is a rewarding position where the children remain at the heart of everything we do. I feel fully supported by my managers and the wider leadership team, and I would like to personally thank the company for the care and support I received during my recent illness. With the exciting growth happening across the company, it feels like a great time to be part of the team, and I look forward to contributing to its continued success.

I personally cant think of any.
