      Good training but unwilling to keep onto staff

      Manufacturing engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good environment within team who were friendly. Decent out of work opportunities (events etc). Great CEO who was approachable and is keen to keep everyone informed of the major tasks of the company.

      Cons

      Unwilling to try and keep staff, very poor increases in work load or pay with promotions (I received less than a 4% pay rise for a major promotion)!! Understaffed, everything is important and last minute, unable to take pre-emtive measures to improve the company. Mainly fire fighting problems which became a drain.

      Don't join, you will regret it!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Not many, other than your monthly paycheque, unless you are one of the click and got your job through knowing a key stakeholder

      Cons

      Massive blame culture, they say it's a just culture but put your hand up and there are no second chance, you will be penalised. It always has to be someone's fault Communication is non existent, managers are unapproachable and don't take responsibility Managers that aren't assigned to one site are barely visable Managers think they are better than everyone else and treat you like second class citizens Each dept is working in isolation, in some circumstances against each other Staff are starting to leave in abundance Training is disorganised with no structure to follow

      Incompetent

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible employer with huge scope for expansion but only with the right leadership in place. Good people working here with strong team spirit.

      Cons

      Incompetence has lead to a personal data breach of employee bank information. Something which I'm sure nobody will be held accountable for such is the culture.
