Pros

Flexible shifts whilst studying. Great colleagues for the most part. Most line managers were great. Young team helps make progression seem possible.

Cons

Favourites win for promotions. Pay isn't great. Not a lot of recognition. Nobody really feels fully invested. Communication of wider company goals and objectives as well as strategies are not openly talked about. If you graduate whilst already an employee it won't help you progress quicker.

Pros

Work life balance is the main benefit, I have rarely left the office after 5:00. Amazing investment into graduates with many rotations and exposure.

Cons

The pay doesn't increase quickly compared with London. Also you don't get the after work drinks that you would in a city. It is based in a small town of Welwyn Garden City.

Pros

Great career opportunities. Treated with respect and consideration. Flexibility with a good work life balance. Challenging and competitive. Good reward package. Involved in making changes and encouraged to lead with your own personality.

Cons

Promotions not always as transparent as they should be. Reward package is not as clear as it should be. Parameters not laid out clearly. Opportunity to progress is slowing with the business contraction.
