Pros

Very well established company with good internal processes. Managers treat people in a very human way, everyone is extremely friendly and helpful, great atmosphere to work in. Flexible work schedule and opportunities for growth. Extremely welcoming for first time job seekers, great coaching / teaching culture. Pays fair wages and good flexible benefits.

Cons

The business is in decline, lot of pressure on saving money, sub-businesses get constantly re-organized. Lot of corporate silliness coming down from the higher management. Much 'pretend innovation' with effectively little change in overall outcomes. Getting into executive band is a brawl with occasional bloodshed, many of the execs have been in the company for way too long.

Pros

Seems like a great idea to take the job, they appear to have many benefits and what appears to be a good environment. The only real pro is salary.

Cons

Management under qualified and struggle to do their own work increasing work load for their staff. Office politics equal to that of being in secondary school. Huge work pressure and no training. No work life balance. Staff care more about money than service. List is endless, the company are not how they appear to be in interview. They have a terrible attitude towards work which leads to delays and missed targets.

Pros

Great culture of continuous improvement and self accountability. The management style is complete opposite to that of other UK companies. Politics is cut through by bottom line performance. Great benefits package.

Cons

Low salary for the loyalty and effort. Limited opportunities to grow if you want to stay local. Too many jargon related messages from management.
