Pros

There are very few. Still some good people and lingering remnants of the Novosco values

Cons

Novosco was a company based on ethics, of helping each other and doing what was best for the customer. Staff had no qualms about working late, chipping in to help and knew they were valued. That is long gone following the takeover by Cancom and the influx of staff from other companies in senior roles. Minimum effort for customers and a just get it done approach without care. Senior management think it’s all about sales figures, rear kissing and back patting among themselves. Unless you shout about how great you are don’t expect any gratitude or salary increase - never mind a bonus. Many staff effectively taking year on year pay cuts due to SMT’s belief in not paying inflation based salary increases as a minimum. When almost the whole HR team leave over 2 months, that’s a telling sign that things are bad

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us and we are sorry to hear about your experience when working here at CANCOM. Whilst we don't recognise some of your feedback, some of your comments touch on some of the challenges we have faced integrating three businesses whilst being tasked with selling the business by our previous owners, over the past 18 months. We know that it has been a period of great change for us all. Now the sale is completed we believe we are beginning to make good progress in building a better company for everyone. So, whilst your feedback won’t have a direct benefit for you as a former employee, it will have a positive impact on our current and future colleagues. We wish you all the best in your career.
