Thanks for the review, and sorry to see you're no longer with us. We do aim to be pretty transparent on pay (e.g. we include it in our job ads!), and our Reward team work hard to regularly benchmark pay and benefits to make sure that we stay competitive. Progression-wise, we advertise almost all vacancies internally, and fill over 70% of those roles with current employees, rather than recruiting externally. So there is a lot of internal movement, but we're aiming to do more this year to raise the profile of the career progression opportunities available to our people. Thanks again for the review. ^K

In some departments it can be stressful. IT infrastructure can be improved. There should be more investment in new technologies.

Pros

Lovely people. Great HQ in Glasgow. Lots of focus on internal progression. A strong ethical focus on renewable power.

Cons

The IT infrastructure and IT services both need work. Although there is a big improvement for Glasgow based people now that the IT drop in centre has opened on the ground floor.

Thanks for the review! I'm really glad to hear that you're enjoying your role here at ScottishPower. It's true that our IT systems are quite complex. The IT Now drop-in bar is proving to be a big hit with people at our Glasgow HQ, but we know there is still room for improvement, especially for people working out in the field. Keep the suggestions coming... ^Katie
