Pros

non! nothing good to say about the company or management!

Cons

awful company to work for. If you want job security, then this company is not for you! They axe people whenever they want, taking your company car from you and sending you away in a taxi! not only is this wrong it is emotionally upsetting as your feeling of worth is nil. They try to mould you the way they want - if you don't follow their mould you're gone. Its hard to take any of the management seriously as they can barely run a bath let a lone a business

Pros

Good salary, early finish on Fridays

Cons

This was three years ago, but I was really prompted by the amount of press around world mental health day this year to write something. I was going through an extremely tough time while I worked here. I tried to bring this up with my manager on numerous occasions by telling my manager I had just broke up with my long-term partner, only for her to literally tell me every time to "man up" and laugh. This person was clearly unfit to manage anyone and I was frequently left with no work and left to my own devices 100% of the time, but they had been at the company a very long time so had found themself in a management position. She bought up at my review that I was miserable and never smiled, but never once bought this up outside of the review or checked on my wellbeing. Fortunately the review resulted in dismissal, which was best for everyone.

Pros

Lovely people Nothing else to be honest

Cons

Career progression doesn't exist Don't take everything you're told during your interview seriously as they will not happen. Manager and directors tend to lure candidates into accepting offers with promise of career progression, salary increase which never seems to happen. No organisational structure departments constantantly stepping on others toes
