Shocking bully culture
|
Stick to insurance legal & general because if they had Lego they still couldn't build a house right. 5 years in the making and not one house has been built right two sites collapsed because of incompetent recruitment in priority roles. I worked there almost 2 years and was systematically bullied out. Senior management incompetent and unprofessional junior management worse. Team leaders to many too count and only 2 of them have any skill at all. This place is synonymous with jobs for the boys. Only good thing was the free umbrella. Just because you can build a car legal & general doesn't mean you can build a house, the house that Jack built was better and that a nursery rhyme. Don't work there and even more so do not buy a house you will regret it.

Awful place to work
|
Before you accept a job here, ask these questions;
- How many people have you suspended this month
- How many “saleable” homes have you produced in total
- Describe the culture and views of the shop floor towards the company
I’ve never experienced a company with a more hostile, toxic culture. Whilst the shop floor staff are good with strong team leads, there is a distinct divide between shop floor and management. These guys hand out suspensions and disciplinarians like there tic tacs. If your face doesn’t fit you’ll simply be hounded out of the company with no recourse.
The shop floor is extremely negative due to inter fighting between departments where some staff regularly look to watch and report each other. Some staff are suspended or disciplined for doing something whilst others are left to do the same thing unhindered. The union is powerless to protect you against L&G. If you have a problem, you are the problem.
The company tries to implement very advanced processes such as 6-sigma but can’t even implement simple methodologies such as Kanban or achieve line balance. A few specific managers are totally inept in there roles which makes any kind of progress exceedingly difficult. The manufacturing mindset is entirely geared towards automation and precision due to the automotive / Rolls Royce background of most of the manufacturing team where the design, process and materials do not lend themselves to this.
If you value job security and positive change I would say steer well clear of this place, the sararies are pretty good but it simply isn’t worth it. Don’t think your someone who can change this place unless your looking at coming into a very senior role, L&G will simply wear you down.

Fun job, and management really helps you succeed. The only downside I can think of is that as an agent, you always have to be by the phones and can’t fully take advantage of the fun things around the building.

Run for your life
|
The only reason people are there at the moment is due to the run up to Christmas, you will see a huge decline of staff in the new year. Managers are useless and Milky Bar kid (manager) is a sulky petulant boy hated by everyone on the shop floor, doesn't have a clue what he is talking about and his favourite words at the minute are "Mask & 2 Metres"
Yellow hats are the minions and looked down on, spoke down too and highly disrespected by office staff and all management.
The wage is good and the people on the shop floor are fantastic, but that's it!!!
There is nowhere decent to eat breakfast or lunch unless it's in your car, the days are laboriously long (9.5 hours) and sometimes you are stood about all day with nothing to do trying to look busy so as not to get in trouble, as again someone with a degree has messed up an order or measurement which means the shop floor comes to a stop.
I'm sure if the BIG boss of L and G paid a surprise visit there would be some knee shaking and pant pooping going on within the management side, as he would see it for what it really is "a shambles".

Company that Cares

I have been with LGA for 5 years, and I can honestly say that I love working here. The company's mission to provide affordable life insurance is an admirable one, and visions for growth and innovations are exciting. There is definitely a work hard mentality and our department is always challenged to find new and enhanced ways to complete our work.
Even though 2020 has been a challenging year, the company has continued to improve its communications and inform everyone of business performance, what's happening in other departments, and wellness and safety updates due to the pandemic. I am grateful to work for a stable company that has allowed us to work from home!
|
My favorite thing about LGA are my co-workers. We all have different strengths, but we all work together well. We also have phenomenal benefits!
|
Our technology needs a little advancement, but I know Windows 10 and Office 360 are being considered for the future.
