Ikea, Aldi and Waitrose named in top 10 places to work in Merseyside and Wales

Ikea, Aldi, Waitrose and Royal Mail are among the top 10 best companies currently employing in Liverpool, according to jobs website Breakroom.

Breakroom, which gets staff to rate their employers to provide prospective jobseekers with a better idea of the jobs they're applying for, has released the top 10, and worst 10, performing companies currently advertising a job on their website. Some of those with a top 10 place on the list may be unsurprising due to their current reputations, but others you may not have heard of yet.

Tata Steel, based just over the border into Wales in Shotton, topped the list though IKEA, Warrington, came in second. Discount supermarket Aldi, of which there are 21 locations throughout Merseyside, came in sixth.

Companies are given a rating depending on how they have been marked by workers currently employed by the business in question. The score is based on a quiz that includes questions that focus on the whole experience of employment, such as 'how much notice do you get for your shifts?' and 'does your manager treat you with respect?'

The full top 10 list is:

  1. Tata Steel
  2. IKEA
  3. SSE
  4. Waitrose & Partners
  5. Aldi
  6. Travis Perkins
  7. Brakes
  8. UPS
  9. Royal Mail
  10. Arnold Clark

Yet, Breakroom also provided the ECHO with exclusive information on the current worst performing employers on their job website. Topping the list is Comfort Call, a provider of services for the elderly and the disabled, followed by Caremark, who provide assistance to those less-abled to live independently. Popular Mexican chain restaurant, Taco Bell came in fifth worst

The full worst 10 list is:

  1. Comfort Call
  2. Caremark
  3. Hft
  4. Tenpin
  5. Taco Bell
  6. Britannia Hotels
  7. Buzz Bingo
  8. Exemplar Health Care
  9. Busy Bees

All companies listed are currently looking to hire. Their individual ratings, and the jobs they are currently advertising, can be found on Breakroom's website.
