Pros

Amazing people who made work bearable. Company car.

Cons

Unrealistic Goals. Extremely old school approach to all problems. Working with Uneducated people. No room for improvement. All about show-off. This company has no bright future; all projects are at a loss. Salary compared to other company is too low. Not paying for overtime working. Modern Slavery. Absolute bully culture. work-life balance is a jock

Pros

Great colleagues when I first started Flexible with training courses Exposure to fantastic projects

Cons

Poor structure for progression unless senior management. Felt like since the Solihull office was introduced, the Rowley office was almost abandoned, the workshop wasn’t fixed after countless promises to fix it. Only had an exit interview - never had real opportunities to voice my opinion to management as no one was ever in the Rowley office or around to atleast her employee feeeback. The workshop is outdated at Rowley, no work has been done.
