Pros

Fun pub sessions on Friday, a few nice grads who are looking to start out in London. Location not bad

Cons

Where to start.. Bullying managers who constantly bellow at you to work harder and make some money, despite the product being utterly useless (which they are all very much aware of). Extremely unpleasant staff higher up who purposefully lie to you about how to succeed, you essentially have to lie a lot and put up with micro managing on steroids. Foul office with no facilities except a few bathrooms, and chewing gum all over the floors. You can't sit down while you're on the phone and they ask you to 100% source your own leads so you end up staying late and coming in early EVERY day. For love of god don't work here unless you're an undercover journalist or a sadist who likes being bollocked for things completely out of your control and what isn't your fault. Grads, it will ruin your confidence and make you hate work. 0 stars

Pros

Complete freedom and flexibility to get your job done. Senior management is there to assist if you ask. Collaborative environment among peers.

Cons

Non performing business units left die a slow death. Sometimes too much of a boys club. Office could use some updating.
