Pros

I have to write 20 words minimum this is hard to write about as there isn't much. Pros: Flexi-time Pay is okay

Cons

Where do I start? I was lied to about the job I would be doing. The role I applied for was very different to the role I did. In terms of progression and development, I did not see myself going anywhere quickly and I can't say I learned much while I was there. There is a massive lack of communication. The person next to you doesn't even know what it is you do and at times I failed to see where I fit in. There was many promises made but yet none were met. They make bad decisions and your skills are wasted. If you expect to receive training then be disappointed. If you looking for a career then this isn't the place for you.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review for us, and we are extremely apologetic that you feel this way about Zenith. As you may not know, we are working towards improvement on our training program throughout all offices – especially targeting graduate employees. In relation to progression and development, we recognize the importance of this for new starters – but realistically this does not happen overnight. We are always looking to promote internally first– providing they have the correct drive and determination to get there. The first step in completing this was the introduction of a new PMDS programme that started in 2016 and we will only have the first full year cycle completed in early 2017. Following the feedback from the first PMDS conversations, we have a new role starting with the title of Global Learning, Training and Talent Development Manager. A new colleague is starting in this role later this month. This role will develop the processes and programmes, we need to put in place, as part of our solution to improve in this area. In regards to training, we are continuously searching for new strategies, ensuring each employee gain the correct and relevant training. Training is something we take seriously, and will revisit our methods in response to your comments. We always ask for honest and genuine feedback with practical examples of both our strengths and weaknesses, as well as where we can improve - and we recently undertook in an anonymous employee survey for that very purpose.

Great Opportunities and People Focused Company

Pros

It's good to work for a successful company that is growing and developing all the time. There are lots of opportunities to work on different projects, and gain new skills. The people who work here are focused and friendly. I have learnt and developed a lot since working here. I feel like the work i do makes a difference. Hard work is rewarded. New ideas of working are encouraged and listened to. Promotes flexible working and is family friendly.

Cons

The global nature of the business and size of the business makes communication difficult at times. Everyone is very busy and it can take a while for people to come back to you.

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to complete a review for us! We’re glad you feel appreciated and that you are developing yourself. In an ever expanding organisation, communication will always be a difficult subject to conquer – but our HR team are working on this, and hopefully you will see an improvement soon.

Pros

We have great engineers, but they're all overworked and all of them want to leave the company.

Cons

The office is a bit outdated. The senior managers don't have any real management experienced. They're all looking out for themselves. There's not really any process in place as other consulting firms. It's a bit like Wild Wild West in the office, especially with projects. Everything you do, you must log your time so that they can bill clients.

Thanks for taking the time to write the review, we are sorry to hear you feel you had a negative experience during your short time at Zenith. We truly endeavour to hire and look after the best experienced engineers during their time at Zenith and managing workload one of our priorities. Regarding the facilities, nearly 12 month ago we moved into a brand new office in Warrington, and we try to continually improve these facilities at Zenith. We are in the process of rebranding our new office this quarter. As you might already know, we are very proud to have been awarded Great Place to Work status for 2017 which recognised a good work life balance amongst many other parameters. All aspects where we need to improve are being taken onboard and improvements made where possible. Thanks again for sharing your review and we are sorry you couldn’t talk about these issues more during your time at Zenith so we could have found a resolution. Regards, Communications team.
