Afternoon, looking at local companies that take on new hires and Stobarts has been suggested but heard mix reviews.
What’s it’s like working there, anyone any experience of the warrington depot? Once I’ve passed looking to get my foot in the door so if there’s an opportunity I’ll take it.
Thanks

Go, make your own mind up. Bu time you'll have done that you're in a job, so easier to get another

I was sent to be a subby for stobarts. Ok they tried to give me a trailer that was crap.. I logged the defect and they didn’t bat an eye while it got sorted.
Every single driving job I’ve had or place I’ve been, always has drivers saying how crap it is. As mark said, find out for yourself while you earn a bit of money

I think every industry has employees that don’t like it but turn up each day. I’m a 9-5 office worker, wfh 5 days a week on websites but I need a changeMorelle88 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 31, 2023 12:01 pm I was sent to be a subby for stobarts.

yeah, they’re always going to quit but never do. Then when you’re leaving they expect you go returnHartaxis wrote: ↑Tue Jan 31, 2023 12:01 pmI think every industry has employees that don’t like it but turn up each day.

you're dead right pal, especially as a new pass you've gotta get you're foot in the door and while I've heard endless rubbish about stobart, I've heard first hand from someone who works there that's its a good job not too difficult good kit generally and very fair pay. Get paid while you learn mateMorelle88 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 31, 2023 12:01 pm I was sent to be a subby for stobarts. Ok they tried to give me a trailer that was crap..

I work for Tesco and we use the mechanics at a stobart place, we are encouraged to find defects and it's a regular occurrence to go over there and waste time to get the overtimeMorelle88 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 31, 2023 12:01 pm I was sent to be a subby for stobarts.
