Pros

37.5hr week. Most of my co-workers are really nice people. We get a £1 token per week-day if we don't drive a car to work. Free parking if you do, if you can find a parking space. Costa coffee. Yearly bonus most years. Share savings scheme.

Cons

We work under the constant fear of redundancy. Job role expectations are often unclear to me and\or unrealistic. My work is constantly interrupted by email, instant messages, meetings and desk visits. My workload has been more than I can possibly achieve for years now. It's relentless. I think people care when I tell them but nobody seems able to do anything about it. I guess they're probably under the same pressure too. There doesn't seem any point in telling anybody about how we're struggling anymore, it doesn't get you anywhere. Change is constant but rarely do they seem to be changes for the better. Not for us. Everything and everyone seems rushed to me.
