Manpower reviews

Newcastle office ran by aunties / nieces / friends / partners who all have a bullying attitude. Fake promises of the role being flexible / work from home at times but you never do and it's not flexible at all. Expected to stay late past your shift but hauled into an office if you're a minute late in the morning.

I got moved to a "higher paying" position but was denied the raise. There is almost no communication or understanding from the higher ups. They assume things and then blame us for the things they did wrong. When I was applying, I asked if there was room for advancement in which they said yes, that was a lie. Our client is Estee Lauder. If you try to talk to someone from Manpower about moving from them to Estee, they'll do little to nothing about it. Manpower gets paid for every head that works for them in the warehouse, they want NO ONE leaving them. Sure they may give you a better position with higher pay, if you fight/nag them enough times, but you still don't get benefits at all. There's NO benefits. The health insurance is the lowest of the low. They only give you 10 points for the year. Meaning no PTO, sick day, personal holidays, NOTHING. It is a temp job, so it's hard to expect much of them anyways. I just wish they wouldn't lie up front about advancement and raises. 0/10 would not recommend.
