Pros

- Those who joined 5+ years ago (and have managed to stay and remain normal) are decent and good to work with and have banter

Cons

- Employee discount of 15% off handsets is poor (used to be 40%!) - Poor management - Recruitment process needs a major over-haul - Different rules apply to different individuals (depending on how poor their line managers are) - Empty promises - HR processes (i.e. team events, meetings) are for show only to tick of a box for management - Speak your mind and you will be forced out - Hot-desking (don't get me started on that one) - Working hours - depending on roles, certain teams have to stay back and work extra long hours (with no sort of compensation/reward) in return - Incentives to teams offered when it comes to 'annual feedback' in order for management and the business to get a good score - Have to justify everything you do, where you go (surprised they don't ask how many times you breathe in a working day in that place)
