Hi ladies and gents.

I've been working at solihull now since June 2016. We were told in our pera training that we were the last intake (80 people) at solihull for a long time. Then they took on another 100 in July. Since then the rumours change daily but it's thought most of those 100 got laid off when the 319 build finished. Plus there have been agency staff being "let go" since...a few off my zone.

The job itself I find great. I've landed on my feet with the process I'm on but at first I was moved all over fa1 doing about 10 different jobs and found each one as easy as the other.

Happy to answer questions if I can anyone has.

MANNY0121

how do you make sure they keep you on?

what tips? or is it just luck?

was there a reason those 100 got laid off

Keep your head down do your job and don't get in trouble.

Not sure why the 100 got laid off but the rumour was that they are all first in line to get called back in the new year when needed.

The agency people that have been let go since to my knowledge all had discipline on their records. Can I just point out there is a new rumour every day. I've heard all manpower were being let go at least once a week.....it's quite funny now but hope it never happens.

is it true you have to wait 5 years to get a contract? lol

Rumours are deadly in this place.
I heard they found a flying man in Peru that can spray cars with his nipple!
I work in bodyshop 3, and they got rid of 60 manpower employees last month in my area. It was down to attendance and disciplines.
