Pros

The people at Iqarus are generally quite friendly and supportive. It seems like the place has potential but it would need different management or to be sold to another company to achieve this.

Cons

The company is solely focused on developing itself for its investors so it can be sold in the next few years. That is the only goal, so don't expect any training, career development or a decent wage while you're there. It's just the only place hiring in Aberdeen at the moment.

Pros

Pay is good (relatively) Bulk time off in-between work Low work load on 9/10 projects they run so lots of down time if you need to study etc

Cons

The management team in Dubai lacks gender diversity, with very few women in leadership roles in their Dubai office. Additionally, the medical and operations teams in Dubai come across as inexperienced and unprofessional. There is a clear disregard for employee retention, as management seems to view staff as easily replaceable rather than valuing their contributions and investing in their growth. The medical and operations teams in Dubai demonstrate a lack of professionalism and expertise, often making them come across as amateurs. The things that happens on projects that managers in head office are fully aware of would surprise any other business Iqarus reputation in general, whenever I meet a staff who worked with them they all roll their eyes after saying Iqarus
