Pros

Meet some great people and get to work on some interesting projects in some nice locations

Cons

Management are extremely unprofessional and disorganised, they exploit the surveyors and don’t appreciate them in the slightest. Some people have been doing the same job for 3.5 years, coming up to 4 and have not been given a significant pay rise let alone opportunities for progression. Be aware, THERE IS NOT PROGRESSION OR GROWTH AT THIS COMPANY regardless of what they may tell you at the interview. They have the tendency to sack staff on the spot when they feel like it and even sacked a whole department 2 weeks before Christmas because they decided to outsource them to a cheaper company in South Africa. The founders are narcissists and are extremely evil, they are manipulative and will do what they want when they want with no care about their employees. There was a time that pupil was an incredible place to work but unfortunately greed and bad management has a screwed this company’s work culture and atmosphere in the office. Pupil had the opportunity to give opportunities to those who gave so much to the company because they believed it in, but instead they chose to lose the people who helped get them to where they are today.

I’m sorry to hear that you have such a negative perception of your time with us, our DS team are important to us, so it’s disappointing you didn’t feel this way. I agree that progression and growth for our DS’s has been somewhat limited because of the nature of the role, however, I’m really pleased to confirm that we’re currently working on some solutions to this - we strongly believe that everyone should have the opportunity to develop and grow. Some of the points you raise are inappropriate for me to comment on, however, I will say that any changes we do make are driven by business necessity, and subject to due process. Unfortunately, I can’t agree with your perception of our founders and management, or your perception of our culture. I’m not sure when you left the business, but I hope you’ve found a role and a company that’s a better fit for you. Best Wishes, Chloe

Pros

Working there can be exciting; there are some really hard-working people. Even the founders themselves are hard workers

Cons

Not sure how the company is still operating. If I were an investor, I would question what the Founders are saying and doing more closely.
