      Poor leadership in Asset Information Services

      Anonymous employee

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nice offices, good pay, good holiday, good pension

      Cons

      Rubbish management stems right from the top through to the lower management. Dreadful senior leadership team. Morale terrible, avoid AIS department and you'll do great at Network Rail. Bullying is also common place in the company if your face doesn't fit. Speaking up and challenging is frowned upon as the management think they are superior.

      Good Company for a long term Career

      Scheme project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Clear pathway of career progression. A competitive salary. Flexible working arrangements are great. Annual leave, sick pay, pension are all much better than an average company. You are looked after very well.

      Cons

      Currently in a reorganization which is being dragged out months at a time, bringing uncertainty for employees. HR department is a awful, especially when trying to get new starters in.
