Pros

Causal atmosphere – no dress code, Flexible working - can work from home, management don’t seem to care if your in or not as long as the work gets done,

Cons

Atmosphere - people are only too willing to stab you in the back, especially managers to get what they want. Trying to implement policies for a large company, when they are still a small company, which leads to some really bizarre decisions. Far too political. Lack of communication, you generally find out via the grapevine what is going on, before you are officially told, or in some instances not told at all and left working it out for yourself. No one wants to make a decision, it gets passed round like a hot potato Endless meetings to discuss meetings!
