Pros

Unfortunately, not many left now to recommend.

Cons

- Started off well but went downhill soon after the take over from Blackstone - Roles are significantly under paid - Enabling bad behaviour and allowing some people to take advantage of poor or inexperienced management - Rolling door of staff (particularly in Sales) - Tagline of Safety is number one priority when in fact it's all about saving and making money - Lack of support when trying to work to agreed processes or procedures - Over reliance on single people in different teams which causes problems when one person leaves or goes on long term sickness Special mention of the current CEO Sarwjit Sambhi who appears to have only been installed to oversee the takeover of St. Modwen and the subsequent asset stripping of the "less valuable" pieces of the business (e.g St. Modwen Homes). This man is pleasant enough and appears to have an open door policy (on the face of it) however must take some of the responsibility for not listening to concerns and guilty of either burying his head in the sand or deliberately allowing a good business to fail. He will argue the figures speak for themselves in regard to Sales however I would argue the culture has changed and is evidenced by the amount of people who have left in the last 12 months alone.
