Pros

i can’t think of any.

Cons

Too much pressure to get involved in company affairs and activities. Some of us just want to do our jobs well and then leave it behind at home. Micro management is rife. You will be treated like a child here and i’ve worked across multiple portico managed properties. They are all the same. Some of the worst management i’ve ever dealt with here. Absolutely zero people skills and should never be in a place of leadership. Promotion is through friendship. If you can gossip along with the managers and do minimal work you’ll be looked after here. Pay is awful for the amount of stress you have to deal with. You will be doing your job description and the job of others with no extra pay. There are much better facilities management companies to work for.

However, this is only for people who would like to attend and is certainly not a requirement. Portico pride ourselves on having some of the best managers in our industry and strive to provide an environment where everyone is treated fairly, respectfully and with dignity. Whilst we appreciate that career progression is relative to each individual. It is important to mention that we have a very good track record of helping people to progress at Portico. In fact, 20% of our vacancies were filled by transfers and internal promotions in 2023, and 58% of positions at Assistant Manager and above. Finally, we do our very best to constantly review the salaries of all positions at Portico to ensure that our people have the best conditions available on the market.
