Pros

Great brands, ok salary, stabl-ish future.

Cons

Pushed to worked beyond the paid 40 hour week or risk being performance managed. Blocked from applying for other positions within the business by local management. Allow an additional hour a day to get in and out of the car parks every day. Always working under intense pressure to the point of destruction for some staff. Considered a bad member of staff if you try to stick to your paid hours.

- Having to work sometimes really early or nighttime due to time zone differences with some of the people we work with - Projects & goals sometimes have to change in the week to better fit business needs and team goals.

Pros

Great work life balance Supportive environment

Cons

If you fall in the less than 3 years experience bucket, your best shot is the new graduate positions which have terrible pay and full-time employment after 2-years is not guaranteed.
