Pros

This is a good company to work for. There is a positive and inclusive culture helped by supportive management. There is flexibility around personal circumstances. The reward and benefit package is good. As well as 25 days' annual leave, employees are encouraged to spend 5d/year on self-development and 5d/year on charitable work, with their time paid for by the company. Communication is good, with frequent briefings from higher management about strategy and future plans and opportunities to put questions to the CEO. The work is sometimes interesting and sometimes less so, but there are opportunities to move around the company and to learn on the job.

Cons

Typical disadvantages of working for a large organisation, I imagine. Progress towards a strategic goal can be sluggish. Communication between different functions is not as good as it should be.

Pros

Some of the people are genuinely rockstars in their crafts. The insurance is top notch and PTO is generous.

Cons

Company culture and morale are awful. The salaries are low, policies are dated and not equitable, product and internal tech is dated. Rapid changes due to poor leadership and frequent turnover. Leadership does not seem to possess the ability to pivot once decisions have been made, even if the decision was the wrong one. Company personality is archaic and as far away from forward-thinking as possible.
