What is the best part of working at the company?
People are OK although it's very clicky...nothing else good about it unfortunately 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Standing about all the time waiting for machines to be fixed that are forever breaking down

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's OK I suppose ...got nothing else to say 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Standing about alot which makes your day longer ...people say your getting paid to stand about but I actually go to work to work

Older employees have absolutely no respect for new especially agency workers, they make you understand that you are trash. There's a lot of pathology at work here. You are watched, often ridiculed if they don't like you for some reason (because you are foreigner for example). Complaints to managers do nothing because it's a circle of mutual admiration.  If you complain, they rather get rid of you than help you. Some people are ok but most of just very bad people. Keep far away from this place!!

Could be a great place to work, however some of the staff need moving on. They ensure that any new starters are made to feel alienated and the training is very poor. Since I have worked here I have seen countless members of staff come and go and all have the same complaints about being bullied by a manager and her boy scouts. The work is easy yet very boring. But what really lets this company down is the poor management and the foul mannered staff.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The staff all worked together 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Very little training so you had to learn as you go but I was a very experienced engineer easier for me rather than newly qualified Engineers.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
God as there was a good team spirit 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy but that is the way I like it

Typical day at work goes quick as there are no hard set targets, what is expected is come to work be safe and do whatever needs doing.
There are loads of training opportunities from first aid, racking inspectors to FLT instructors.
With Finlays if you work with management they will work and help you all they can.
 

I think working at finlays you feel part of a team, they have a good benifits package with a good pension, salary could do with being a bit higher, but its not bad pat for Monday to friday with early finish Friday.

i progressed well in this job and really loved it with prospects ahead however my personal life destroyed that opportunity as businesses can only be  so flexible i was heartbroken but ther you go....

management where easy to get on with and had respect ..co workers were the most friendliest bunch and would go out of there way to help you out really great team once you prooved yaself.

The maintenance personnel, are a good bunch. Management are wishy washy, no real leadership. You can be pulled from pillar to post. The pay is low, pension benefits are good. I would say that the pay difference in maintenance staff is a least eight thousand a year, which is not good. 

Enjoyed my contract with this employer - relaxed approach to work - both staff and management asked you to carry out tasks, rather than instructing you to complete them. Made the days seem a lot shorter and certainly more enjoyable, I was sorry I had to leave.

My time was brief and I felt let down. 
Me and my team got on but lack of communication let us all down. I didn’t know what they wanted and at the end, management gaslighted me to make me believe it was my own fault regarding communication. The company has killed my passion for FMCG.
