The rapport between co workers make the job enjoyable. Arrogance of senior management counteracts this.

Pros

All teams are genuinely supportive, fostering an environment where authentic friendships can flourish, free from the typical workplace rivalries.

Cons

This company ignores its need for innovation, led by directors without the right approach or tech competence. There's very little to no chance for growth or learning. If you're from larger, more structured companies, you'll quickly see the huge gap between Perry Ellis and your enriching past experiences. Here, you give everything but receive nothing. Ambitious people should definitely pass on this opportunity. On top of that, there are no benefits whatsoever, and don't expect any flexibility for emergencies or personal issues.
