To think it's ridiculous for an employer to offer no training to a new employee?

[MonicaGellerCleans]

I have just seen the second job advertisement that I've seen in recent weeks saying that they offer no training. Today's advertisement said that no training is provided as the successful candidate will be tenacious enough to work out how to do the role through forging relationships with employees. Along those lines, anyway.

AIBU to think it's ridiculous and that the company are probably a shower of shit?

Its also illegal under the Heath and Safety at Work ect. Act so yes I would think shower of shit covers it.

At least they are signposting what a horrendous place to work it would be

They’re setting up someone to fail.

What kind of jobs are these - sales, data entry, manual??

What sort of job is it

It's a sales job

I'm.in a poisoned chalice of a role similar to this. Two man role, colleague ran it into the ground and missed so many tasks, then handed notice in within weeks of my arrival to avoid a disciplinary. I've been left doing two roles, all alone with no one to ask. My colleagues attitude is, we all manage, why cant you?

I've been poached by my ex boss and am very tempted...

I'm sure they don't mean no relevant H&S training - just no training on sales techniques, where to get leads from etc. Presumably they've employed people with no experience before and are trying to make it clear that someone needs to be a self-starter. Although they could have just said that.

Take the offer & run!

My last job was like this and believe me when I say I crashed and burnt. I kept getting picked up on things I ‘should have known’ Well I would have known had they told me and I got told off daily leading to me getting quite depressed and tearful most days. I handed in my notice after 5 months.

I'm sure they don't mean no relevant H&S training

Experience and age would make me sure of exactly the opposite.

I would hope they've have at least some GDPR training. Possibly some safeguarding/vulnerable adults training too if they're in sales. And of course the Equality Act. They'd be my bare minimum. Along with H&S.

Certainly as IT manager - no GDPR, no access to systems.
