Pros

Modern. Interesting projects. That’s it!

Cons

Site management was good but directors awful when it comes to recognising hard work and ability. Forget getting a pay rise here! Many levels of sign off which gets blocked as they are all too scared to put forward the review. Senior staff looked after but junior staff you are just a snotty nose kid worth nothing. Denied basic travel expense and lied to as to why, even though other staff are gifted travel/living expenses they don’t qualify for. Any excuse from a director. Emailed department head and got a response from his PA saying do not contact him again. Forced to leave due zero career progression and being forced into debt just to eat.
