Bromford Reviews

Pros

I have just received my 15 year Bromday… I received a lovely book full of memories over the past years…. I can honestly say that one of the things that have kept me striving to achieve my best are the colleagues I work with. I have worked and are still working with some great people and it’s the people that I work with that makes the difference every day. They pick me up when I’m down, offer support when needed and laugh when we can. This is what get the work done and makes Bromford a fun place to work.

Cons

Losing some long standing colleagues 

Pros

On the whole the colleagues are friendly and supportive. Flexible working and an adult attitude to self managing workload.

Cons

Training for the role was limited to self study of out of date information and training materials which contained numerous inaccuracies and did not explain how the role was meant to be performed. A planned training period of twelve weeks was ended abruptly after one week when operational requirements dictated that i needed to go live in my new role. The bulk of the training that i was asked to complete was computer based training for a completely different role to the one that I was employed to do. Concerns that were raised about a lack of information about what was expected and how to complete the role in a compliant manner were never really addressed . Due to the field based nature of most Bromford roles colleagues do not attend offices at regular times making it difficult to turn to colleagues for support or to truly become part of the local team. Working in the localities team is a very solitary experience for much of the time and it is very difficult to feel part of a team. These roles really arent suited to people that value being part of a cohesive and properly functioning team. Team meetings and team bonding events are largely superficial when you take the time to scratch below the surface of local management support. Colleagues who have been at Bromford find the lack of real opportunity to progress their career and earnings frustrating. Progression and salary enhancement are dependent on achieving performance standard for the role, however the performance standards are not measured in a consistent manner or are of a subjective nature making it impossible for an individual to receive fact based feedback on performance.
