What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

They do keep us updated, more consistent focus on strategy and more customer focus would be good

Very good managers at royal mail

The managers are good people, but the way the business is run (with labour cuts etc.) leaves their hands tied. And gives way for full time staff to get away with doing less, and part time staff picking up the pieces. The harder workers are always used to pick up the pieces of other people's work.

Regular open and transparent communication

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Everything. They need better human management skills.

The leadership do not care about team

Their jobs! Start to Care about their staff and customers.

Treating their employess better .

The issue is, at Royal Mail, the organization has terrible management and even worse the ability to employ the correct staff, most managers are ex assistant managers from lo budget shops, or some with very little management experience. Staff don't even want to cover additional rounds and get mad!!!

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

Good salary discretionary bonus cash for car

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

With some genuine respect and support

No benefits from them, only bonus for managers

Lack of moral. In workplace

Driven by pure lies and promises

Rate of pay is poor considering how high the cost of living is . The overtimr rate isnt worth it

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

They share my points of view about royal mail

The postal workers no more about the job than most of the managers . Managers are mostly failed postmen

Some really good people at Royal mail

They are fun to socialise with, and the sense of humour is great. You still get your few that you wish you'd never met, and there is a lot of moaning, whining and arguing though.

Friendly cooperative focussed supportive non competitive

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Respect your employer, please and the job will be easy

They will never work together, they keep getting parts added to their rounds, their managers are awful and the environment is boisterous. I recommend reading these comments and quite possibly employ some of these people to restructure this atrocity. It's not a good place to work unfortunately....

Lots of disgruntled people who need leadership no bullying

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

The most positive part would be that you get to shake out your legs a bit

There is nothing positive about working for Royal Mail

At the moment there is nothing positive

The people I work with day to day are great. I am able to work from home which does mitigate some of the stress

There never has been a positive work environment, to say the least I would rather stack shelves at Tesco. You are run down constantly and never praised for your hard work, even the local Reps become reps to avoid a few days here and there from the mundane lifestyle. By far one of the worst places!!!

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

To Treat staff with reapect

Rasism from the managers, worse place

No bullying snd mind games from mamagment

Build up a permanent workforce

What did you like most about the interview process?

Interviews Reviews

The opportunity to voice my point of view

Interview processes are hardly ever enjoyable, let's be honest.

Met a number of individuals which gave a good sense of the company

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

Give new entries the same job and hours they are told in the interview

No communications poor engagement total farce

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

Great office perks, friendship, rewards

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

Stop promoting managers without maniere

Better managment treating the staff like people

Mail being delivered to wrong addresses, complaining about gates being left open and in very few occasions; aggravated assault. The managers try and get their team to reassure them, as quite frankly are too scared to deal with customer conflict themselves; instead it's the team misrepresented daily!

There are cuts in labour everywhere meaning customers aren't getting the best service because there just aren't the hours in the day to do so. No motivation and the moaners get their way. Restructuring has created unachievable workloads leading to delays in mail. Focus only on tracked and specials.
