Worked at a gatehouse at the grimsby bca site, terrible place to work, dangerous, filty and unhygienic place. No cameras or lighting place was a total deathtrap waiting for a serious accident. The worst part was the supervisor was an alcoholic that turned up drunk most mornings after consuming at least eight cans of beer the night before totaly unprofessional.

Most unprofessional company I had ever worked for. I remember I was young and it was my first job. I was given a 48 hour contract by HR but when the work stopped, I wouldn't get much hours. Lucky for them, me being young at the time, I didn't do anything about the hours I wasn't given or being paid. If they tried this on me today, I would most definitely be in court with all the cow boy managers. Pay was and still is awful, hence the long hours to make it seem like you actually earn something. Can't believe they're still trading today.
