Pros

- The company offers reasonable salaries - The company is highly organised, departments are largely autonomous and there are procedures in place to communicate up and down the company hierarchy - There is a mix of team collaboration and independent work - Personal development and training is always encouraged

Cons

- The type of company and atmosphere where you have to enjoy and embrace the corporate culture. - IT systems and programs are not consistent throughout the company. When technical issues arise this often causes a lot of disruption in peoples work and their ability to serve clients.

Pros

Large, visible franchise that always looks good on a resume

Cons

A very tiny minority are served by a large dis-enfranchised employee base. Its all about moving quickly enough to avoid responsibility. No sense of support or creative thinking. Move quickly enough or re-organize and no one can be held accountable. Getting by on historical, innovative view of Guy Carp, not the reality that over the past 10 years its become a slow growth, bureaucracy who size has caused it fall over on itself. Just look at the number of Vice Chairman or Heads of this or that, its nuts. The Best young and middle level talent doesn't remain for more than 2-3 years.
