Pros

Flexible working - to a degree Diversity and inclusion networks - working parents (money for having a new born baby) Internal training academy LinkedIn training Purchase annual leave / annual leave carry over (discretion) Encouraged to complete volunteering

Cons

Too many middle and senior managers Too many meetings which could be done via a phone call / message. Favouritism Slow IT equipment for field workers Less time for interaction with installers as the CDM role given more and more duties and bigger teams Poor quality PPE and seasonal uniform not issued in timely manner (winter arrives for Easter)

Pros

Great career over a decade whilst working there. Under the regime of Phil Bentley (former MD), there was excellent growth, and that provided progression.. Good pension scheme, excellent company car options, healthcare plan, great colleagues

Cons

Current culture of disregard for staff, cost cutting without thinking of actual consequence.. Current morale is very low at all levels including managerial. Too much bureaucracy and internal politics, with processes created for the sake of them being there, and no actual benefit.. Input seems to be taken away from management team too.. Salary lower than competition, Manager bonus scheme seems to become harder to achieve in an attempt to cut costs
