Pros

I joined Northgate 6 months ago, and I have found that the culture, people and the way we engage with our customers is the best I have seen in 35 years of working for some of the largest organisations and PLCs in the UK. Everyone I have met at any level within the business has been incredibly helpful and supportive, with a real sense of purpose to succeed, not just for themselves but for the whole company. The benefits are very good, as is the chance to progress within the business, which I have already seen great examples of. The training and development for new starters, and continued training throughout the business is one of the best programmes I have seen. I would recommend Northgate to anyone who is looking for a company that will give you the tools, support and development needed to allow people to be the best they can be.

Cons

None I can see right now

Pros

Pays the bills, Good BDM team.

Cons

Where to start….. Useless management. New business Team (order takers) get all the praise whilst the Account Managers do all the work. Commission structure is always tailored to New business. Paid in arrears and is always wrong, lucky if you do manage to sort it. Senior management are a waste of time, take it or leave it. Lost load of good people because of this attitude. No career progression, ones that do get promoted into seniors end up redundant. This seems to be a trend same thing every few years.
