Pros

The pension at 12% is good and the holidays at 5 weeks are quite competitive. Most of the people are alright and get on well.

Cons

There are no opportunities to progress in your career. Most people have been in the same position for several years and it is increasingly rare these days to see anybody get promoted. The salary is basic and increases are very small and do not even match inflation. Bonuses are practically non existent. Management are constantly monitoring everything and there are a huge number of checklists and spreadsheets to be filled in. Morale within the company is at an all time low and there is a constant effort to turn each location into a clinical sweatshop type environment with very strict clear desk policies.

Employee engagement is really good. A lot of self-enhancing tools.

Pros

Short Day, Nice People, Fun Enviornmen

Cons

Not the best job for someone coming out of college---they dont expect much of you and you work an 8 hour day with a 1 hour lunch....if you want to work hard and work overtime you have to ask for approval. Nice people
