Pros

The company is people-centric, multi-cultural and promotes it's values within regularly. It is also a well renowned brand throughout the construction industry.

Cons

New starters with no previous experience can come into the same position as you but on a higher salary, and then you will be expected to help in their training. Regular changes come to the bonus structure, and often it isn't until three months in they'll tell you what you're actually aiming for to earn it. The basic salary is touted as "benchmarked" across the industry, however there is no transparency on which figures are used to check this. If you don't achieve your KPI's throughout the year, you will receive no pay increase (except for April 2022, granted). This results in people being much worse off as inflation happens. If you hit your sales target one year and overachieve, the target for the next year will almost ensure you will not be able to overachieve again. There is an extremely high turnover of staff when it comes to account managers. You need to live in the right location (Manchester) to be able to progress up the career ladder.
