Pros

-Company car -Fuel Card -Expences - Although you have to claim back from your own money which some people don't like -Laptop/Phone -OK initial wage

Cons

-UNDERSTAFFED -Wages are stuck forever unless you fight like mad and do silly tick box exercises -Employees struggle with self progression. In my time I've seen 2/3 good employees leave due to the lack of self progression even though self progression is promoted within the company.. Rarely hapens -Sometimes given impossible tasks with unrealistic targets -All very secretive from the top down. You hear not even half the story

Pros

Decent company benefits and strong talent at the branch and sales level.

Cons

Gulf regional leadership is not effectively supporting the revenue-producing teams closest to the customer. What often presents as process, training, or accountability instead creates confusion, frustration, and reporting burden for branches and salespeople. When metrics become the focus instead of the support system, they inundate the field with activity, hinder execution, and create friction instead of progress. The company has talented salespeople, branch leaders, and field operators who understand the customers, markets, systems, and daily operating reality, but too many are underutilized while gaps are protected or explained away. That is how performance declines quietly: strong employees disengage, honest feedback gets filtered, and the company starts mistaking activity for execution. This is not a branch-level talent problem; it is a Gulf regional execution problem.
