Pros

The people I supported were fantastic.

Cons

High turnover of management. New management every 3 to 6 months High turnover of staff. Every time I went to mandatory training everyone was a new starter Poor leadership with no support for staff Poor communication. Can never get managers on the phone On Call system with no clue as to how to give advice ‘ if they even answer. You are in the business of supporting people but staff don’t seem to count as people. Don’t expect to get any progression in salary, position or training beyond NVQ3 even if you stay with the company for over 10 years. As soon as Affinity Trust handed services back to the council, staff were left to run services with zero backup or support. But, I realised we did a better job without the negative input and criticism of overworked managers trying to stick to impossible deadlines.

Thank you for providing your feedback. I am sorry that you did not feel supported by management whilst working at Affinity Trust. We would always want our staff to feedback any concerns while they worked for us to allow us the opportunity to respond to these and to make improvements. Salaries are an ongoing concern across the sector and we regularly review and benchmark these in local areas.
