Pros

Some great staff here

Cons

The guy at the top of this company makes some really, really poor decisions. Sometimes it feels like I am working under a dictator who has lost the plot. They have recently changed the commission structure within sales and now it's really very unfair and very difficult to get paid against target if the company overall does not hit it's 'invoiced' target for the month (and each quarter). Anyway, I've been here long enough and fed up of the micro-management and intrusive (verging on abusive) behaviour of some of the more senior staff/Directors, so I am already looking elsewhere. There's very little room to develop a career here, especially in Sales or if you don't fit in with the management. Also, the company is losing money, the past few years have been really tough with overall profits less than 2% which is very poor, the ship is half sunk already!

Pros

Good Salary - if you get it (lots of sales guys didn't get commissions owed due to loop holes) Everyone is out the door on time - probably cant stand to be there any longer than required.

Cons

Couldn't care less about staff - only interested in profit margins Complete lack of management No strategy Inner Circle of friends who are only interested in personal gain CEO that is completely out of touch with his business (Never in the UK where the company is based), Has no idea about the changes in the market, No idea about service and is living in a deluded world where his inner circle worship him regardless of what they say behind his back. During a period of "culling" One guy asked if his job was safe because he was about to spend £90k in savings on a deposit for a new house. He was told it was, two days later they let him go - do you want to work for a company that can do that? I asked one person what was going on and they said that the "culling" was particularly brutal this year!

Pros

Location, friendly staff, office environment.

Cons

No real drive or opportunity to progress. All my projects and customers have been taken from my hard work. Few snakes within the company.
