Pros

Good projects Central London based Good team Modern construction company

Cons

Gender pay and treatment inequality. Male counterparts careers were supported and encouraged so they could work up the ranks. Often felt undervalued and would not be given more responsibility - Was assigned menial tasks One Board member made derogatory comments regarding gender equality sexual harassment within the workplace Was never fairly rewarded for bonuses and there was no clear structure for them. Those working on very challenging projects for years were often not rewarded. There was no constituency with bonuses or pay reviews.

Pros

Flexible working, nice people, interesting projects, fantastic team work, career progression for some people in various sectors & great learning in many aspects, no regret at all.

Cons

I felt it’s only a tick box for the company image regarding promoting the diversity or females in power. I’m reality, it’s very male dominated company. It didn’t apply to me despite I am a very ambitious person with a great attitude to work & years of experience, very disappointing. The management didn’t support the above. The choices were to change the sector or leave the company to get a promotion after years of being at Mace. No payrise as kept hearing you haven't progressed higher; but in essence, they wouldn't allow/ support the progress. I left eventually, got permission & delivering high profile projects very successfully.
