Pros

People Free parking Free Coffee Free fruit now and then Relaxed working environment. no one knows what you do anyway No stress as the work is meaningless

Cons

Working for a family run business where unless you're in the CEO's (not John Fairhurst) "special ventures" team aka “the grooming team", or a friend of the family your job is meaningless, unfulfilling and pointless. Marry one of the family to get ahead or play along with the games the incredibly unintelligent CEO plays until you get a payout. Do it for a year or two if you fancy an easy life, but if you want a career that means something forget it, although the way money is wasted in this business it probably won't be around for to much longer.

Pros

The canteen. It’s a relaxed atmosphere on the surface.

Cons

Everything else. Direction changes in an instant, strategy likewise. Family members in positions they’d never be in anywhere else, friends given very senior roles despite having no experience in that field. The CEO is powerless to the whims of her father, and seems pretty demotivated as a result, and he’s got an ADHD approach to strategy. The structure is massively flawed, with org charts nonexistent and teams structured in seconds. The biggest flaw is that they don’t respect or care about their staff, with the exception of those who’ve been there for years. They hire and fire and don’t care at all.

Pros

Relaxed working hours and time off for personal appointments (doctors, hospital, dentist etc). Free parking at most of their sites. Fresh cooked food daily at low cost. Staff loyalty card for local businesses.

Cons

No incentives to progress. No drive from above. False promises. Say one thing, do a next.
