Cold storage container Labourers - ASAP START

It wasn't a good experience there and the pay wasn't good

Labourer (Former Employee) - Macksville precast yard nsw - 21 February 2023

It wasn't good working there and the pay wasn't good. Busting yourself for low wages, it was a bad experience for me. I would never work for them again unless they offered me a decent wage. I've never worked for them ever since my bad experience because I felt like being used and abused that's why I never applied for work through workforce international again.

Pros

None

Cons

Very low wages

Utterly disgraceful

Warehouse Operator (Former Employee) - Newcastle NSW - 29 June 2022

Worked for these clowns for 11 months Very frustrating and extremely ignorantbought to their attention that the pay and the award being used were incorrect. Result i got was an attempt to put me on less. Gutless management who when the employee knows more then them they run and hide behind closed doors instead of sorting the problem efficiently and effectively

Pros

Nothing comes to mind

Cons

Leaving and moving to someone who can pay correctly

You are not stuck in a building with air conditioning and fluorescent lights

Traffic Controller (Current Employee) - Northern Rivers NSW - 27 April 2021

You are out side in a different place all the time. Working with different people from different walks of life. You need to be motivated and not lazy. You can’t leave it all to one person to do all the work. If you show initiative and work hard you will get more work

Pros

When you work you get paid

Cons

When you don’t work you don’t get paid

Toxic Culture and Dated Processes

Recruiter (Former Employee) - Australia - 6 April 2021

Branches are under-resourced - normally a 1 person show; payroll under-resourced / unavailable for candidate issues; no marketing / sales material; no marketing department; no HR Department; no inter-office collaboration / sharing of clients / leads / national deals; no safety team; no pay-rises EVER, no direction, no incentive, no support; a dollar driven, high personnel turnover business that does not care about it's own people. Very sloppy and reactive management; A real winning organisation.

Pros

Quickly learn that previous jobs were pretty OK

Cons

Do not expect pay increases or any support from higher management

Good thorough management, very fast paced workplace; well paid.

Warehouse Worker (Former Employee) - Various ones - 26 March 2021

Easy interview experience but it was quite a mission getting shifts as you are constantly calling each day to confirm (a shift) availability. The pay was good for the work done and they always the award rate.

Pros

Easy job, collaborative fair work culture, the staff were all good.

Cons

Long hrs

Toxic and unorganised

Coordinator (Former Employee) - Australia - 18 August 2020

Terrible place to work, from the lack of management and supervison to the absolute terrible work ethics. If you challenge certain senior managers you're employment is as good as terminated. Everything is micromanaged from the top. No HR also means onboarding and exiting is a joke, which means when you have a problem with your manager, you have no one to help you through it. They will sooner get rid of you rather than address the issue which just means someone else needs to go through the drama you have just been through. Staff turnover is ridculous.

Pros

Late starts and early days, there are some great people that work there

Cons

Everything about the company

Workforce management is in Sydney so we have to take the initiative to make a lot of our own decisions.

Admin and Payroll assistant (Current Employee) - Stapylton QLD - 2 March 2020

Workforce is a national company that is a fast paced ever changing company. We consistently have deadlines to be met that put an enormous amount of pressure on us, but we make the deadlines each week so as everyone gets paid on time.

Its a trap. Be careful

Employee (Former Employee) - Blacktown NSW - 24 February 2020

This agency and their client in blacktown are the worst places I have ever worked in my life. They post wrong information in their job descriptions. Unprofessional, unethical people in the agency. I was promised an ongoing job In blacktown, ended up getting five shifts in one and an half month. I had to call everyday for three to four times asking for a shift.Don't fall for their trap.
