Pros

it was a great place to work but they shut it down in Scotland, funny thing is their other site down south was not making enough money so they shut us down no one seen the logic in this, I had to find other work as I couldn't find anywhere to continue my apprenticeship, no help from the management either to even attempt to find us anywhere that was a poor show from them.

Cons

apart from the poor decision to shut the place it was a good place to work with some great guys,
