Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend Care UK Limited to a friend?
No
Why?
No support from management. Only negative feedback. Do not understand that night workers sleep during the day. Little communication. Communicate over social media or text messages. Messages always have a negative tone. Rude management.
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Care UK Limited?
Do not do it unless you enjoy being spoken down to. Apply for nights as you avoid management and the day and night shift divide.
