Briggs will take anybody on, no skills required. Poor reputation with skilled engineers in the industry. Anyone worth there salt moves on quickly. As for customers, they are Lucky to have any the way they treat them.

If things are so bad at Briggs I have two questions. 1 why don't people leave. 2 How do they still keep in business

Is there any truth in the rumour that Briggs can't get any engineers in Northern Ireland to work for them, because the package is poor ?

it seems that Briggs in the UK are Dysfunctional. The only way you get better is by all working as one. Office, Service and sales.

Office staff think they are better than the engineers, poor management from the top down. Sales not selling but having big days out while engineers are flogged for every bit of revenue.

Looking in from outside they seem to be short staffed in most department's.

In my position as an end user I find account managers and regional managers harder to contact than Aliens

Generally not too badly as long as you tow the line but think engineers do have more responsibilities than with other companies. Also depends on the type of service manager you have either a company man or a level headed ex engineer who understands and supports.

What's in a name? Well, if we can judge from this week's move by Doosan Bobcat to rename its Doosan materials handling lines as Bobcats, there clearly is some benefit in a historied name, especially one that sounds American.
