Pros

Decent social culture. Lots of free drinks

Cons

Lower salaries for consultants compared to other companies. Internal advancement, while outwardly promoted, is blocked from happening and although guaranteed to be more responsibility, Nova will try to hinder wage progression.

Cons

The company has been growing strong under the original owner's direction; however, new HR, senior leadership and new CEO killing the things that make this company great. Lots of opportunities. - Putting people into long term boring jobs under the MSP. Positive Impact On Community - removed fundraisers Great Company Culture - cancelling social events - removed internal employee representation and surveys. Perks & Benefits - Other companies are matching or betting Abundant Training & Professional Development - Limited by Covid. Outstanding Reputation - being watered down by new hiring practices Passionate Team - being removed by strangling team engagement Impressive Leaders & Role Models - beating middle managers into submission.

Pros

This review relates to the Nova Systems International companies based in the UK; I have no experience in the Australia/New Zealand based operation. Remuneration, although not industry-leading, is quite good. There are plenty of opportunities for hybrid working. Most colleagues, especially the graduates and young engineers, are a delight to work with.

Cons

Like any company Nova Systems publishes some lofty values, However, the true values exemplified by the UK-based Managing Director and the Senior Leadership Team he appointed are: Mediocrity: 42% of staff consider the Leadership Team incompetent at running the business. Hypocrisy: 42% of staff think the Leadership Team betray the company’s published values. Duplicity: 37% of staff do not believe the company would deal with misconduct at work. Cronyism: 47% of staff believe the Leadership Team play favourites. Only 48% of staff consider Nova Systems a great workplace; however, if Nova Systems is your first job out of the military, then it may seem like the ideal employer as the so-called Leadership Team consider it much more important what you say than what you do.
