Walkers Charnwood Bakery in Leicester

Samworth Brothers, Charnwood Bakery is Best Company and Very Good Food Quality 👌👌👌❤️

This is a good manufacturing site, not a tourist attraction.

Security where very help, and got every sorted swiftly. First time visiting, as a huge fan of pork pies pleased to aquire some!

This is a food manufacturing company

Great turnaround and friendly people.

Its Good . I enjoy my work . Staff are Good & helpful nature

Signed on with agency for work here and some of the workers in the place where they cook the pies, communicate in grunts and gestures! Safe to say that, most of them in that part of the facility have skipped English lessons... I have no other issues to complain about apart from that. In all other areas of the facility, the staff are more than helpful when it comes helping new workers get up to speed in the workplace.

I had an extremely happy 25+ years career working at Charnwood Bakery. I started 1991 when the factory was quite new and so much smaller than it is now. I can remember the really old manual machines that were in place and the progression from them to the new age machines being introduced. I had the greatest, happiest and most proud career and I just wished that my daughters would be able to have a solid, secure and happy career like I had. I have a million wonderful memories and I am truly saddened to hear of the passing of Sir David Samworth. I can remember how he would personally visit "pie palace" and he would remember us and genuinely greet us and talk to us about how things are and how are we. He really did have time for his workers and his mantra made that place a great place to be and work for. I can remember so many 16 year olds joining the company way back when and now they are still there with 30+ years experience and with great positions having worked their way up from level one to management etc. I met my wife at "pie palace" and many many great friends. I have nothing but respect, love and affection for Charnwood Bakery. Best wishes 👍

The hygienic standard of the settings is worthy of commendation.

Worst job application process. It’s all polish , Latvia , Romania , more European in the recruitment process. They will not let anyone come to get job from other than Eastern Europe , There is no skill based Opportunity. No chance for subcontinent or other people to work in this company. It’s wast of time anyway it’s part of Samworth brother . Its worse ,, not bothered.

waiting in line in front of the gate, the gate man directs the traffic.

Great place to work, supportive staff and management.

Friendly service and atmosphere.

I'm Temporary. Working on a line. Pre Bake, Pork Pies. Friendly Staff, Flexible Shift. Overtime if wanted. I do feel more welcome there than other places of that size. Very Good Hygiene. No complaints from me. Pay could be better all though it's the same for any work at that level. 🤨😐👍🏽 Lots of Awards displayed for Pies. 🥇🥈🏆 Champions

Perfect, Security, Courtesy, Professiolism 100% Satisfaction. Thankyou.

Trailers all over the yard you need to have extra caution with that place

Dave on intake is a credit to this company always helpful and polite don't happen at most company's but this one is spot on easy tip park on left side go see security they tell you where to go 👍 can some times struggle for parking in hgvs

A pleasant and easy place to get to and deliver t0

In and out load 26 pallets 30mins

Got to give at least 1 star or you can not write a review. For a food company to have RATS running around the place. As a driver you have 2 spaces that really are not provided for for to park. I find this company a disgrace and the court should close it down. If tou eat from m and s then enjoy paying a high price for your food, oh and you have probably had rats running ovee your munch. I use to go to the pizza factory in nottingham, same problem. Lots of rats and suppliers to m and s.

brilliant tasty pork pie, shame the design of the packaging is white writing on a light gold background.

These have helped our charity out so much with donations of food they deserve more recognition.

If it was a 0 i would put that. My working experience at Charnwood bakery was terrible. For instance the supervisors were not helpful at all,lack of communication skills and heavily unorganised.Following on,i was never given an induction,no health and safety procedures and NO COVID RELATED MEASURES.

Can be slow to unload handy enough to get in and out of.

Worked here for 3 months in production and packing area through Ala carte recruitment agency. Best department to work is packing and despatch. Specialised in making pork pies.

Security hasn't a clue, neither goes intake

These is a work place for those who want to work hard and earn money i am recently working and its a good pie company and chilled work place its not for those who can't handel chilled environment so please be aware if anyone wants to work need proper clothing for the chilled environment.

Worst experience in my life in UK. will recommend to everyone that don't ever ever work there, no matter at what cost.

Make sure to park in the road and walk to security to book in. They seem to take as long as they want when unloading, but they're polite enough. Pretty sparse on the facility side for delivery drivers.

Security very unhelpful and rude

Worked as a Engineering team leader, wages were wrong every week, wrong hourly rate than as per contract. Poor communication, left due to this as it went on for over 4 weeks. Final wage still not right even though I have left over a month ago, contacted walker and son every week with nothing coming back. Would I recommend this company No!

About working on this site is very exhausted,you have toilet limit time,the food is in very clean position,about some supervisor "they don't appreciate your work" "We don't bring our traditional rules from our region! we have to respect uk rules and agreements including the right's for workers, health and safety!is more important than target!

Este locul meu de munca.....exelent
