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.

Not a great company currently.

Pros

Global Management policies for employees are too strong. But has limited control in India. Have more emphasis on training of their employees and aligning to company policies.

Cons

Current Indian management is not that competent to achieve the results and just trying to justify their salaries with more talk than action to higher management. No work-life balance(As it's just the sales org. in India, even salespeople are more bound to spend their time on laptops even after their working hrs.) Higher attrition rate(nearly more than 70% of employees are less than 1`-2 years). As you stay longer, there are fewer career opportunities for you outside as their market is too small and competition is less. HR in India is just a puppet of Sales management. They have no powers but to listen to them.

Pros

CAR is provided to all members of the sales team. Work life balance.

Cons

Car is registered in company name and once you quit the car is returned back to the employer. Although the car forms a major part of your entire CTC. Company offers B2B role but you are asked to visit small and middle scale contractors and pitch a product which is at least double or triple the market pricing standard. If you are looking for a B2B opportunity in Hilti only apply for RKAM roles. Remaining sales profiles are more of a glorified DSP role. Areas are very small. Some of the sales members are literally managing 1 PIN code and are asked to increase penetration and extract business from very menial accounts which becomes highly improbable.
