Pros

Good atmosphere but you don't know for how much time it will be for. Competitive salary

Cons

Leadership can any think to move you from one location to other permanently within India. They don't care about your dependency as they only have internal projects. Only UK leadership have travel opportunities.

Pros

There are no pros to working for this company

Cons

High level of drinking and bullying throughout the team. Isolated and not on boarded at all. Management happy to allow bullying and belittling to continue. Blocked from going to HR and treated with losing job. Jobs role not as advertised and accepted. Agreed to be a senior construction manager but role was for a site supervisor.
