Fortnum & Mason Reviews

Pros

Nice people Fun, environment Lovely, cool amazing

Cons

No cons It was amazing

Pros

Good staff canteen, good food for the staff and a good environment as well as the 6th floor.

Cons

A total mess when we talk about how they organize and allocate the new employers, after 6 months never have a looker to keep my belonging and let me tell you that I was a manager, no reviews and a culture of harassment is on top of the daily basis, the worst thing is that all the senior team know about it and nobody says or do nothing to stop that. Long hours without breaks and a total lack of leadership in almost all...

Advice to Management

Put in practice a better program of induction (your's mainly about the history of the company ) Focus more in your's associates, more training, more reviews and listen to them more, focus more in how your senior team can be more leaders than bosses and maybe people don't gonna left your company with a huge feeling of disappointment, looking back as a complete waste of time and regret.

Pros

cafeteria and some of the members of staff

Cons

Bullying is a daily occurance and they might end up in court one day. No direction or help from senior manager, Empty promises and lack of strategy is a daily occurrence. Actually it seems like she had her favourites and the rest of us were not worth even talk to. Staff turn over is so high they can't find people to work and than wonder why?
