Pros

Fantastic people, culture and benefits. Very supportive organisation. I would definitely return there. If you want to progress they give you opportunities to do so.

Cons

Some of the people have been there so long that they are set in their ways and are resistant to change. It can sometimes be a bit of a struggle to get them to see things differently
