Pros

It's a job. That's about the best I can say. Locally, we have good co-workers, but that's on our local manager, not Serco. Other offices have awful people, so it's clearly not standard across the company,

Cons

Lowest pay they can get away with. Corporate communications are rarely pertinent to local employees. No real concern for local employees, but they do pay lip service to showing concern. Paid time off is just enough to be able to say they give it. Does not stand behind local managers. Strong "customer is always right" mentality, regardless of who really is right. Micromanagement at its best. Turnover is huge. Upward mobility is difficult unless you're a favorite and have more education than is truly necessary. Experience is irrelevant.

Pros

You get to directly impact clients' success. "Decent" pay for the location.

Cons

Leadership will shift blame onto teams instead of taking accountability for their own shortcomings, and Program Managers won't take the time to seek clarification, leading to misinformed decisions and unfair outcomes. They are more focused on internal politics and protecting their seat than recognizing or rewarding actual contributions. You can work hard for years with consistently strong performance and still be passed over for promotion in favor of someone who has built the right relationships with management, even if the have not proven themselves yet. Support is subpar. Employees often spend more time troubleshooting issues themselves than receiving timely or effective assistance.
