Pros

If you've read some of the reviews about Redline Group on Glassdoor then you'll see a trend, every rating for this company is either 5 stars or 1 star, there no in-between. The reason for this is that the 5 star reviews are written by the senior management team or by those that are in relationships with the management to bring the rating up. The 1 star reviews give a much more accurate picture of what Redline Group is really like to work for as a consultant. I think that sums up the pros!! Though I did get a bottle of wine and a can of energy drink for Christmas so that was nice, and not forgetting the year before I was able to spend £10 on a hotel or Taxi for the Christmas party! The new office is quite nice, better than the old office that had bars on the window to make you feel like you were actually in a prison.

Cons

Redline group is like the game Tetris, everything and everyone is jammed in with bizarre experiences to make it fit. But the management and I do use this word loosely do not seem to learn their lesson. If someone leaves the business then they immediately become the enemy, and everyone is told to delete them from their LinkedIn. Then they think it is wise to talk negatively about those that have left the company to us who are still here and think we will agree with their views.

Pros

The managent team can be excellent motivators and the business has some great clients.

Cons

My biggest frustration at Redline was always inconsistency, you never knew what decisions the Directors made would affect you next, and these decisions would come completely out of nowhere with employees simply not being looped in.
