Pros

I had to move to my home country for family reasons, otherwise I wouldn't have left the company. In my experience, customers like the service and commissions are good. The team is friendly and employees in support functions, like operations and IT, are always there to help you, so that you can focus on customers. CEO is easy approachable. He encourages ideas and suggestions to improve the company and he's available to meet 1to1 to discuss any concerns you may have. Good results are recognised and talented employees get rewarded. BDMs are mainly on the road or working from home, but a nice office is available in central London (next to The Shard).

Cons

Don't expect to work for the usual plant and tool LTD company or family business. It's much more. The company has recently secured millions £ of funding and it's ready to scale nationwide. Products vary from skips to powered access, from telehandlers to welfare units, from fuel deliveries to drills, so there is a lot to learn, but this also means there are great opportunities for career development.

Pros

Great company culture Adaptable to change Senior management listens to employees and acts on it (when it feels it is the right decision) Team culture Flexible remote working

Cons

Forward-thinking company in a backwards industry Don't handle difficult conversations very well, maybe due to no HR department

Pros

Great level of trust and autonomy — you’re encouraged to own your work and take initiative Friendly, supportive team with a “get stuck in” attitude Fast-paced environment where no two days are the same Ideas are genuinely listened to, and you can make a real impact quickly Strong focus on solving problems and improving how things are done Opportunities to grow and learn across different parts of the business

Cons

Because the business is growing quickly, some processes are still being figured out or built as you go. That can be challenging at times, especially if you’re used to very structured environments — but it also means there’s plenty of opportunity to shape how things are done.
