      Enjoyed the working environment

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The staff are friendly and are willing to teach. The manager takes time to listen to your concerns and this encourages employee contributions.

      Cons

      Training could be longer and more comprehensive. I had to learn almost everything on the job.

      A poorly managed, high-pressure call centre with poor pay and zero career opportunities.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      None at the moment, but it was once a decent place to work.

      Cons

      No time to get your work done Letting your customers down because you have no time to deal with their requests Doing everyone else's work but your own (how is that for moral?) Huge case loads Feeling like the managers are doing you a 'favour' by granting you time off the phone Staying late to get things done (unpaid) Incompetent Business Managers who are completely out of touch with the job their staff do Incompetent Team Managers who do next to nothing Poor pay for the job we do (the work of maybe 5 different professions) Near impossible Pay Progression structure Experienced staff leaving and being replaced by temps Colleagues having emotional breakdowns

      Pros

      Great people very flexible in terms of time, especially if you have kids For IT mostly located in York and Norwich which are small wonderful cities with great quality of life Changing rapidly into Agile environment

      Cons

      Might mean a bit of travel between Norwich/York and London. Career path is very bad for IT Lack of training Slow to change Very political and hard to get things done
