Pros

I worked with some fantastic people during my time there. In particular across the the campaign management and tech teams. They were efficient and helpful with a great work ethic.

Cons

Having worked there for a number of years, I was hurt, to say the least, at how attitudes changed towards me once I announced my pregnancy. I was berated for coming in late after having been extremely ill despite having contacted my boss and HR to let them know I would be half an hour late. I was then not invited to various meetings and pretty much excluded. It was made clear that someone else on another team was going to be taking my role and I should hand everything over to her as quickly as possible. I eventually took this to HR, which I should have done sooner. I am only writing this so other women can take this in to consideration when applying for this company.
