Pros

Highly established brand, flexible employer, ambitious growth plans, collaborative environment and pleasant place to work. Recently a structured career path has been brought in ensuring everyone has something to aim for. It is a grown up environment with a few trainees dotted around so a nice balance. A mentor scheme helps newer staff gel.

Cons

Communication and direction was poor but now steps have been made to change this and ensure everyone is aware of the company's strategy and ambitions. Whilst having a feeling of collaboration and having a very willing workforce on that front cross-selling has not been strong enough in the past so is a work in progress. Founder Adrian Simpson is taking more of a backseat which is a shame but new CEO Ian Coyle is a trusted figure with good ideas who has been COO for a long time.
