      Pros

      None. The recent 15% fall in Share Price reflects this. Unless there is a drastic change, this company will soon be a take over target.

      Cons

      - way too many managers with very dubious qualifications for what is now a small work force. - very arrogant management where even a 'hello' or a 'good morning' is not acknowledged. - Rampant nepotism. If you are mates / related to some of the senior management then you have a job for life. - Glass ceiling for employees who are not from the North East of Scotland. - A very high cost base which is unsustainable in this market.

      Pros

      Great company, I have no complaints. They have treated me good. I’m hungry to make more money, that is the reason I’m moving on.

      Cons

      Have a sells crew. I would have jump like a spider monkey.

      Pros

      * Flexible Schedule * Bus Pass * Not bogged down with old school methods for doing the work * Pleasant work space - not a sweat shop * A good 'can do' attitude from my peers * Friendly - not much politics * Problems with the building get corrected quickly (cockroaches, flood, restroom issues, HVAC)

      Cons

      * There is not much to set them apart from the other design companies * Low energy prices means low workload (not a diverse work group) * The company goes out and sells a project without considering our skills for the work - then we look bad even though we did our best with what we have for talent * Slow to hire the right help * Young managers do not take charge and don't know how to do the work themselves. I don't know how they got their positions * The executive assistant really runs the place and has a paid parking spot. Her relative is a manager
