Pros

High growth company and more growth to come. Offers some good suppliers. Good stepping stone for people with entry level experience Given a lot of responsibility

Cons

Extremely long hours. Staff moral is very low especially in service department. Management out of touch with what is happening (or don't care). No focus on moral or employee welfare. Companies short term penny pinching hurts the whole business. Salaries are below industry standard. Absolutely no business process within the company, it is amazing the company has ISO accreditation. Little to no practical or technical training Engineers are expected to be everywhere and no regard put on their workload. Hard to take annual leave.

Pros

Expenses and discounted products Peers are wonderful to work with, hard working and dedicated staff.

Cons

Zero support for staff by Senior Management. Senior Management upon induction, make you feel invaluable. However, as time goes on (usually the 5 month mark) you become subjected to a downward spiral. It is quickly realised that the harder you work, your boundaries are not progressively respected. A lot of pressure is placed on staff to work hard and be successful, but they are stretched too thin. Being given senior management project work is placed under the illusion that you are trusted enough to 'help each other out'...which is rewarded by even more work! However, be strongly advised that if a small mistake is made, you are placed in the firing line and your work ethic is questioned. If you raise any issues, they are dismissed, but then you are held accountable for when things go wrong despite giving advance warnings, and questioned as to whay you have not brought it to their attention sooner, with them knowing full well that they are the source of the problem. To put it simply, The work culture is toxic. Senior Management will not support their teams or team members, and instead of trying to help, they point blame and deem staff members as being useless. Gaslighting techniques are common, gossiping is rife and false narratives are created where staff members are constantly being pitted against each other. It's such a shame for a company with huge potential.
