Overpriced, overworked and eternally unhappy - Bar/Floor Staff The Errigle Inn Employee Review

Great staff who generally get on well together Managers are down to earth and seldom undermine staff, always have time to discuss issues raised Very little trouble in the bar Work isn't terribly difficult Always paid on time

Minimum wage employer - there are no rates for a job, wages based on age No official training - very much a sink or swim mentality Communication between departments is not the best and staff get very mixed messages about policies Very difficult to access HR information - holidays, contracts, pay Managers don't seem to always be able to make decisions or use their initiative, this is the same for staff Staff aren't treated equally in regards to promotions, pay, holidays and disciplinary - one rule for one employee can be different for others Obsession with appeasing certain difficult customers

Guaranteed hours, generally in the same work environment and the same shift patterns per week Ability to cover shifts easily Good communication and relationship with managers Tips in specific areas of bar

No formal training provided Very close staff, may be difficult to penetrate social circles Have to be extremely outgoing Uninformed about processes of applying for holidays etc.
