I would give it a zero if I could
I’m so so appalled. As someone who’s been using the app on and off for 2 years I’ve really seen it fall into decline. All these new rules make it impossible for people to onboard the app even if you’ve worked with them before! All these extra policies make it incredibly costly to use the app and not worth the effort. It’s lenient towards nurseries who don’t respect your time. They can cancel shifts the day before and that’s fine but if you cancel because you’re ill and don’t want to put the children at risk, Kalendit will suspend your account and expect you to pay a £50 fine to get unblocked. On top of that, the nurseries are unprofessional. Because you’re only there for a few shifts, they see you as disposable. It’s evident in how most of the permanent staff treat us. This app enables those workplace dynamics and imo it’s a huge scam. The way the app and the nursery staff treat their agency workers is appalling.
