Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible working hours. Salary can be competitive (dependent on role) Interesting projects to work on* CEO very clear on MM direction

Cons

No clear career progression Unfortunately promises made on development opportunities/qualifications not met As with all organisation, the success is dependent on project availability, and management support. Support is not always consistent. During periods in which there is a lull it can be hard to keep busy.
