    I was told the salary was €1850 a month with health care added in after 6 mths and an increase each year with a bonus, depending on work rate, at then end of each year.....but who really knows?

    I'd say that's a gross figure?


  • Registered Users Posts: 126 ✭✭whatis12


    more than likely i would say.... but it seems to be the starting pay for most jobs today unless you are highly qualified or its a managerial position.

    VHI Kilkenny are recruiting for call centre staff again, for anyone seeking work in the area, I got a job alert email today.

    Is there a high staff turnover?

    I heard they have been expanding a lot in Kilkenny. Moving a lot of functions out of Dublin. Now over 500 staff in Kilkenny, the nature of that work there'll always be a high turn of staff.

    Oh that's very interesting, don't suppose you know if they moved their Finance function down to KK?

    Its a call centre for the most part, call centres ALWAYS have high staff turnover, its the nature of the beast.

    hi,

    I worked there for a while ago and I have to say it was the hardest place ever to work and achieve positive results. the place is massively cliquey and if you make one mistake against the wrong person your totally screwed the place is nothing but a sweatshop and its crazy the way the staff are treated. yeah sure there are perks like a a decent canteen and free vhi if you make the grade but one thing is certain you'll be using the EAP ( employee assistance programme, counselling ) a lot. the higher management don't dare talk to the newbies. its a nightmare.


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭LadyBetty


    That sounds horrible kilkennym, bet you were glad to leave.

    They're not sure a the moment I hear really. What they appear to be doing is not replacing staff in Dublin and creating new ones in Kilkenny to an extent.
