Pros

Good environment within team who were friendly. Decent out of work opportunities (events etc). Great CEO who was approachable and is keen to keep everyone informed of the major tasks of the company.

Cons

Unwilling to try and keep staff, very poor increases in work load or pay with promotions (I received less than a 4% pay rise for a major promotion)!! Understaffed, everything is important and last minute, unable to take pre-emtive measures to improve the company. Mainly fire fighting problems which became a drain.
