Pros

Dress down Fridays and early hours on Fridays.

Cons

They haven't gotten rid of someone who was overheard saying the N word and the P word. He also said he didn't like employing women as they 'get periods and have babies' and he 'cannot be himself around them'. Total boys club. Worst part is the guy isn't even good at his job.

Pros

The company is well-respected in the Construction industry and it is very profitable. Senior managers were approachable. Benefits were fair, although salary poor.

Cons

Salaries are too low and below national average, despite the fact the head office is located in the City where salaries are traditionally higher. The company is very profitable but that's only because they like to cut costs and don't invest in their staff. I finally had to leave after two years without a pay rise, despite the fact that my appraisals were excellent and the company was making a billion turnover. I left for a similar job with a salary that is forty percent more than what I was making at Mace, which just goes to show you how low the salaries at Mace are. Consequently, the people who work at Mace are of a lower calibre, and not ambitious or bright enough to get high-flying jobs elsewhere. Managers liked to micro-manage. They also encouraged competition between colleagues, which caused a lot of tension in our department.
