Pros

Some lovely people on the ground. Some great managers, but very rare. Some great opportunities with the hiring freeze for up-skilling existing staff. Surviving the pandemic crisis well, despite being in the commercial buildings space. Senior leadership are trying to turn things round.

Cons

You know you're just a number. Senior management and execs do not care for staff at all. Travel ban, hiring freeze in place even pre-Covid to sweeten shareholders. Individuals would be let go at short notice with no warning. Different rules for execs of course.

Pros

The benefits are good for the most part.

Cons

Overwhelming amount of tasks. Paying for company vehicle as a manager reduces your overall income. Made more money in the field. Overly competitive atmosphere within the company, No work-life balance, Nepotizm is ramped.
