Pros

Collaborative team. Employees care about their work and strive to do the best that they can. Work is varied and challenging.

Cons

Senior Leadership Team lacks direction and is not transparent. The team does not seem to work well together (albeit rather lost of new members). Employees are no longer engaged and SLT does not seem to notice or care.
