Pros

Good company to work and learn about new technologies. Lot of opportunities to change experiences with other site globally speaking. The company offer a very good e-learning tool for all employees.

Cons

Due to a lot of business to the public sectors and to avoid midia spotlight many of the company decisions are taken based on the political reassons which sometimes is not the best one to the company.

Pros

Exciting projects with cutting edge technology to contribute to Great work to life balance - good holiday entitlement and good pay for engineering Good development opportunities

Cons

Unfortunate management disconnect to grass roots creates crazy decisions which get filtered down and then must be dealt with. Rishton has made life significantly worse to work there as an engineer but hopefully the following CEO who is a trained engineer will sort out the mess that currently exists.

Approach with caution.

Pros

The people are mostly friendly and relaxed, and social events are available. A position here can be an entrance to the nuclear industry. Daily start and end time is flexible. The office was, until recently, known as PKMJ, but the business was purchased by Rolls-Royce. The company is expanding, so job security is good. Overall, many seem satisfied, or have their complaints but may not have past experience with which to compare.

Cons

On-boarding and training in general are sparse to nonexistent. Thus, it is hard to know what you need to learn (what questions to ask) or what is expected of you. Roles are poorly defined. Pay is hourly, in order to pay overtime. Overtime with 6-7 day weeks may be required, particularly on-site, whether you need it to complete your own work or not. Projects are often abandoned, fade away, or are shifted to other teams with no explanation, so there is little sense of accomplishment. Work is micromanaged, and engineers are asked to complete tasks rather than projects, making most of it feel like busy work.
