Pros

Engagement days, on call rota and opportunities to develop. Feel like a team and always someone to talk to and discuss things with. Looking into upskilling and continued professional development. Slack and teams are great for contacting and reaching out for support , unlike in my previous company. Pleo and fuel card is a blessing and so convenient for parts, charging, cleaning the van and tools. Best company I've worked for so far so keep it up!

Cons

Salary at the moment is amongst the lowest in the industry, needs to reflect cost of living and increase like all the other companies. Please look into this so workers can feel appreciated and go above and beyond for our customers.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
