Pros

It is a small business. Pay is reasonable. Most of the work is easy, you'll be unblocking toilets and changing door handles!

Cons

Although it is a small business, it is trying to grow, yet it has a small business mentality. It seems very cliquey, anyone who has been promoted in the company is friends with either a director or a manager! Job Logic (the system they use for jobs on tablets) is useless, there are too many things to input on the tablet making your working day 50% admin! Staff turnover is massive, nobody stays at Linaker for long. Vans are tracked, they say they only look at the tracker if there's a problem, but they question everything you do. Don't expect to work on the trade you have been brought in on, you're going to be a glorified handyman!

Pros

Contract work is good, other engineers are good, freedom is great, pretty much your own boss whilst out working. Lots of contact with help desk, good friendships made with helpdesk staff and fellow engineers.

Cons

Management or lack of management, my direct manager never returned phone calls, texts and rarely to emails, was proved to be a liar to his boss and at same point accursed me of being a liar when I had proof I wasn't. For 2yrs Management promised tools and lots of other thing nothing ever came of Management's promises.
