Pros

This company generally has a good public image so customer interactions are generally pleasant and frictionless. They provide a good support system and plenty of resources to aid engineers in and outside of work. I am satisfied with the management and field coaches reliability, they give enough help and involvement but doesnt feel like they are breathing down your neck if you are hitting your targets. Flexible work schedule and opportunities to do overtime, reap bonuses and upskill

Cons

Constantly restructuring the workforce ( I am on my 5th manager in less than 2 years ) Constant changes to processes and proceedure, I was told that I would have the opportunity to train for EV during my initial interview, now im told that they are no longer providing EV upskilling due to engineers without certification. Low pay compared to industry average and sub contractors Disconnect between the expections of the work scheduling team and reality of the length of the job Very high completion rate targets

Pros

Good company to work for. The hours are great, your good work gets recognised. You meet lovely customer, and you have the satisfaction to help people that have been let down. You get all the tools you need to do your job to high standards

Cons

Just because nothing is perfect in this world, they do have some cons , but to small to mention

Pros

Amazing culture - great tone at the top, friendly and competent colleagues, treat you like an adult and trust you'll get your work done. Genuinely interesting and meaningful work. Best of both worlds - startup/scaleup energy with corporate resources.

Cons

Pay is a bit low, but they mostly make up for it in other ways/perks (e.g. unlimited holiday). If you need a high degree of structure/can't handle some occasional chaos, might not be the place for you (this is a pro for me though).
