CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

- Office is close to town hall train station

Cons

- POOR pay - Clique of senior been there for a while - just there to climb and peel new titles onto there LinkedIn - Micromanaging is ever so prevalent - Try to mask poor pay and micro management with 'team dinners' and each others houses and you're looked down upon if you disagree to host.
