Avoid and find somewhere else to work! - Manufacturing Technician Allergy Therapeutics Employee Review

Allergy Therapeutics is an innovative company looking to better the lives of its customers and patients, but at the expense of their employee's wellbeing. My time here has been traumatic to say the least. Started off alright but quickly could sense that all was not right! Colleagues stressed, management poor and some had no idea what they were doing, inconsistent expectations with benchmarks changing every single day, overworked, underpaid, employing all these new people in fancy positions yet some deserved employees can't get a promotion. Overcomplicated systems, poor and confusing documentation, telling everyone to turn their NHS Track & Trace apps off at work at the height of the pandemic as whole departments had to be sent home (their reason was because the app does not know what precautions were put in place, the building was overpopulated and too small anyway, social distancing impossible, coronavirus breeding ground). Stagnant managers who have been round far too long, no parking, tiny tearoom, mess and paperwork left everywhere, little room for progression, jobsworths, no fun, no enjoyment, good luck if you are physically disabled and want a job there the only access to offices is by using an industrial lift, high staff turnover, lack of training, GMP optional on some days, pushing boundaries as much as possible to avoid non conformances. But its ok, the company sent everyone working from home a KitKat and a teabag and everyone at work got a free ice cream to make us take a break for our mental health. I spent my additional 15 minute break searching for new jobs which did my mental health a lot of good as I got a new job and handed in my notice yesterday!
