I loved working at PD training. I thoroughly enjoyed the diversity of my work day and enjoyed working on projects with key stakeholders. PD Training encourages a work/life balance. If my work load was getting too large I was encouraged to suggest ways to reduce it - work smarter not harder.

While PD Training hired the right people, I noted that they tended to languish in their jobs. The directors are very hands on and are deeply involved in every decision made. It is a small business after all, so employees tended to not have much autonomy (except for highly defined process driven roles). If a decision is made that the directors did not like, the harshness of their response tended to create an atmosphere of fear. So rather than thinking in an innovative and intrapreneurial manner, employees after a few months turned inward and more towards self-preservation than optimising processes or solving problems creatively.
