Was my worst experience I have ever had in a work place

AIN (Assistant in Nursing) (Former Employee) - Campbelltown NSW - 23 February 2021

Could not recommend as a good work place or a place to put a vulnerable relative. I have never felt so disappointed in a job and having to make the decision to leave because of the toxic work place culture.

Pros

Non

Cons

Toxic work culture

Poor management

Personal Care Worker (Former Employee) - Bendigo VIC - 3 September 2020

I was employed at Estia for 15 months as a casual whilst studying my Diploma of Nursing. As I was on placement we changed managers. After my placement I was unwell so in this time COVID testing had to be done I informed my manager. It ended up being a chest infection. I picked up a couple of shifts which I had to cancel due to this. I then picked up a shift for a day that I had school and rang that I made a mistake . Two days later I received an email from payroll saying they are sorry to hear I'm leaving . I never resigned, I never was spoken to by the manager or received any corespondince from this company . So I pretty much got tiered without a reason or any contact by the manager. Definetly will never work for this company again .

Pros

None

Cons

Long hour, unappreciated, horrible managment

Awful environment

AIN (Assistant in Nursing) (Former Employee) - Figtree NSW - 20 August 2020

Honestly do yourself a favour and look elsewhere. Manager is absolutely horrible has 0 respect for the workers. Never been in such a miserable understaffed workplace in all my life.

Pros

Residents and other staff members

Cons

Management and staff shortages

Save Yourself!!! Do Not Take this Job!!!

Maintenance Officer (Former Employee) - Manly Vale NSW - 23 July 2020

Whatever they tell you the job is at the interview, it’s not. You’ll face a Facility Manager & a Customer Service Manager that are so obsessed with their KPIs for occupancy that they are willing to let the place disintegrate around them. They literally think you can suddenly divide into two people and be in three places at once. Constant unnecessary knee jerk reactions to every tiny thing that they think concerns them and they’ll tell you how to do your job just to top off your day = ) You’ve been warned!

Pros

Some great residents and staff

Cons

Management

Fun workplace

Lifestyle Coordinator (Current Employee) - Kadina SA - 11 June 2020

I have found being at Estia I have a sense of belonging. I love coming to work and spending time with the residents is the best part of my day. Everyone is friendly and willing to help each other out. Laughter is often heard throughout the building throughout the day.

Hard to integrate

Personal care attendant (Former Employee) - Kadina SA - 22 May 2020

Lack of team work and communication lead to constant confusion and contradictions. Running out of aids,PPE and just basic necessities was a stressful everyday occurrence.

Overall it would be a good place to work if they respected their staff.

AIN (Assistant in Nursing) (Former Employee) - Figtree NSW - 19 May 2020

So much gossiping and bullying at Estia. Little to no support from your manager. If you have any issues they are swept under the rug. Bullies getting away with intimidation and harassment. Poor work ethic from a lot of the staff. No one takes ownership of their mistakes and they like to blame others. No team work , every man for themselves attitude.

Would recommend

Nurse Assistant (Former Employee) - Rosemeadow NSW - 7 April 2020

Working at Estia health was okay the only problem was the people that worked there. So many people wanted to be managers and you just wouldn’t know who to listen too

Great Place To Work

Personal Care Attendant (Former Employee) - Kadina SA - 18 March 2020

Estia Health were the first company which gave me a go after completing 4 weeks of work experience as part of my training. Friendly staff and a well kept facility which kept not just the workers happy but also the residents.

Nice and friendly environment.

Personal Care worker (Current Employee) - Mount Coolum QLD - 8 March 2020

Work is fun, it's my passion to help people and it is more relaxing and valuable when I have my very friendly co-workers around me. Multicultural people with respect and love. Sometimes the hardest part of the job is when there is not enough staff and its hard to manage.

Personal Care Assistant (PCA) (Former Employee) - Dalmeny NSW - 5 March 2020

It was a good place to work for always plenty of work. Very caring employers and understanding. Just think it should have paid more as it was hard work and we often worked under staffed.

Stress full to work at

Personal Care Worker (Former Employee) - Craigmore SA - 24 January 2020

Residents are unhappy. Life style hide so they don't have to do anything. It's a joke to watch then the carers get blamed ..disgraceful .the dementia part is so understaffed . Families coming in expecting to get waited on while we struggle to toilet residents..and the husband's are worried about what they want on the topping of the dessert. Makes me so angry ... We need support as carers
