Pros

The company wants to progress in manufacturing research developing new technologies and techniques, but fails in execution because on old fashioned style of management. Great place for experienced people and self starters, who can win the managements hearts.

Cons

Run by risk adverse and none experienced management and leadership. Reactive by daily process and constant change in working and expectations. If your a graduate or need training and structure, not the best place. However with entrepreneurial spirit can out grow the business.

Dear HSSMI member, I am sorry that you had this experience with HSSMI. HSSMI is a fast-growing organisation and I appreciate that this means also change during this process, which can cause concern if the right training and support is not available. We have been listening to this, as training was captured as an area raised by our Employee Representative, who has a voting place at the Board of HSSMI. Not only has HSSMI rolled out a new training policy but a company-wide corporate training which gives everybody in the organisation the right tools to develop and be successful. The fast growth and increasing impact of the organisation have also a positive side. As you say, it creates chances for employees to grow with the organization, being part of great, innovative projects, and lead the journey together. In fact, Leadership and Entrepreneurship are two of the five key values of the organisation. I always welcome direct feedback – my door is always open, and I am keen to listen to improve how we operate. Our Employee Representative is also always there to collect thoughts and can forward it to the right people. All the best, Axel Bindel – Executive Director

Pros

Working on projects that help decarbonise manufacturing globally. Variety of projects from automotive, aerospace, energy and other sectors. EMI scheme which involves all members in the team. Salary review 2x a year based on achieving objectives. Commision scheme for all staff. 2022 saw three interventions to support cost of living from the company.

Cons

Systems and processes are not mature where the onus is on the indivdual to get activities over the finish line.

Pros

- Engineers and Technical leads are very friendly - Good pension contribution

Cons

- The management is too young and without experience (it is very hard to learn from them) - No progression in career and salary - It was possible to work from home only for good reasons - No work recognition - Very difficult environment if you are a graduate and you would like to be mentored (many interns were left on their own) These cons lead to a high employee turn over.
