none apart from colleagues. Shcking company

Cons

low pay, don't value staff, lie upon selling themselves in a TUPE transfer and then once they have the contract change staff members contracts so that they all have to leave as they can't afford to drop wages and take 2 weeks unpaid leave every year. Criticised for trying to help out other teams
