Railway Technician at Hitachi London

Lead technician

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent Pay package and benefits. Diverse and multicultural colleagues. Chances for progression/internal jobs availability to move up the grade.

Cons

Very disorganised and the budget and funding are not channelled at the right avenue, such as high quality training, tooling/equipment, diagnostic laptops etc. Nepotism which pretty much exists in most company, is sadly also present here. Very poor communication among different department. Dissemination of important technical and engineering information is difficult to obtain. Not much feeling of being appreciated and sometimes very mundane and repetitive task can demotivate. Higher management does not seem to care about the workers.

Siloed work environment and chaotic

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is competitive for market rate

Cons

Very reactive instead of proactive, often in disarray. Siloed work environment, therefore kills morale if new to the team/business. Little to no culture, people do their job and go home. No company socials.

Hitachi Rail Response

Thank you for your feedback - we are always looking at ways to make improvements and truthful feedback is the best way for us to understand the areas where we need to focus.
