Pros

- The company has great resources and study materials. -There are many courses and seminar to extend your knowledge. - The general impression I got from my peers is quite positive.

Cons

- I was placed in a reasonably competitive department and my supervisor was not helpful at all. -When there is bully behaviour from their permanent staff, my boss took their side without listening to my side of the story. - There is no support system for the industry students to review our department and supervisions. - The temp agency was dealing with our payment weekly and they frequently make mistakes.

Pros

Was a great place to work before multiple rounds of restructuring and all good leaders were replaced with jokers

Cons

- favoritism - does not promote from within - it is a culture where you will only progress if you butter the right slice of bread - promotes managers who have no leadership not vision
