Cons
One big downside is what another user has already mentioned, and I can confirm it: Heavy administration (meaning a lot of paperwork), There's a lack of leadership and discipline that leads to unsatisfying services to customer. Some employees are more equal than others, i.e. lack of clear rules as to goals, budgets, bonus plans, remuneration. Mistakes are not discussed but rather hidden. Team spirit almost inexisting although it is crucial in a business where sales and field mechanics depend on each other . The company builds its success on buying smaller local service providers rather than growing naturally by earning customers trust.
