Pros
The fringe package is very good, pension, discount goods, staff purchase scheme etc. Certainly looks like a caring employer on paper!
Kontras
In the press recently the new ceo James brearley, has excitedly told the world that he has raised the sales execs basics from 15 to 22k. Marvellous news! Not so marvellous is that if you acheive target or exceed my commission has been massively cut. Broadly taking into account the larger basic I’ve effectively been given a £20k pay cut. It would happen in other world. Yet the company still gets into great companies to work for leagues. Reason for this? They present to the share holders that it’s all great, the employee surveys are driven by most employees filling them out in a positive fashion due to fear of repercussions if they don’t. Mr. Brearley seems like a wholesome fellow. By all accounts he owes Stratstone a bundle due to a lost law suit. Wreaks of arrogance. Odious, toxic company.
