A growing company but a great experience

Pros

I started in the Holborn office in London before moving to the new offices at Ludgate and spent nearly 1.5 years at Hitachi Rail. Personally I really enjoyed it as my role changed massively in my time there which was only possible as the company was growing so quickly. I worked in the Sales and Marketing team and the people were great, I loved some of the projects I got to work on and everyone worked as a team - which I loved. My role focused on delivering a new project and I would have been looking forward to new projects after this except for me the travel to the office was really long so I found something similar closer to home. I would definitely recommend working there though - I had a really positive experience.

Cons

Things move really quickly as there was so much to deliver in a short space of time, if you don't thrive in that type of environment you might struggle with the pace of things. Overall I didn't find many negatives with my experience and if the office was in a different location, I would have stayed on with Hitachi.

Pros

Some very nice people working here Engineering team seem pretty happy New office at London Bridge is modern

Cons

Lots of office politics, in particular, senior managers are often playing the blame game. Salaries aren't very competitive HR is not great, only one girl who was actually good in Holborn but she resigned several months ago... Unsurprisingly.
