Pros

Flexible clock-on/off hours Good experience for future GIS Technician roles Use of social media on work computers Staff parties

Cons

As an employee I was majorly misinformed- With 5 months left on our contracts, Cyient Reading office laid off 50+ staff with 4 working days notice after reassuring everyone that we would remain in employment until the end of our contract. Was "promoted" without a pay rise and made to come in to work out my notice when others on my pay grade were allowed to not come in whilst receiving pay. Had to battle with superiors to receive fair treatment. Had a team leader who was abysmal at communication and made the office feel like a primary school. No holiday/sick pay £10 per week agency fee Miss-sold salary

Thank you for your feedback. I’m disappointed that your experience at Cyient didn’t live up to your expectations. As the Head of HR, I’m personally going to take this up with management to avoid future issues as we really want talent like you to enjoy their time with us.

Pros

Good pay, opportunities for 1.5x/2x pay during overtime, can take holiday very easily, casual work environment, the people you work with are by far the best part, flexible hours as long as you meet 40 hours a week.

Cons

Management expect you to be like monkeys to achieve their impossible deadlines. Every deadline, if met, is not met properly they just rush the work and quality becomes poor. Treat employees as disposable objects, giving us longer contracts to just cut it short when they are fully aware that they were going to have to do that. Then they call you a month later asking you to come back. No real progression for promotions, they always find an excuse not to assess your monthly productivity for payment increases. The system used is not really useful in finding other work in GIS

Pros

Gain employment experience if desperately needed.

Cons

I never leave reviews on anything but I was so disgusted by every aspect of this job and company I had to post this to warn people to stay well clear! This position has been open constantly for over two years (2019-2021) and this is all you really need to know! False advertised pay, Low pay, No progression possibilities, GIS skills learnt are just digitizing which is the equivalent of drawing lines on paint, You spend more time filling out admin on excel that actual GIS.
