Pros

There is a great corporate culture. Very warm and inclusive, lots of different clubs and societies to join, the Partnership gives you all sorts of special offers and discount, as well as running five of its own staff-only hotels at which you can stay. You're not paid commission so do not have to be the sterotypical pushy salesperson. The bonus is always generous: staff were given a mininum of 13% (7 weeks') extra pay even during the worst of the credit crunch, and this has been as high as 20% (10 weeks' worth) in the past.

Cons

The customers are often very demanding, and service standards are high, which means you have to stay extremely patient with occasionally difficult customers. It may take you a while to "break into" the company as some people are very protective of their departments and responsibilities against outsiders. Pay (before bonus) is only average. Otherwise little to criticise.
