Pros

Great company values Customer focused Regular pay days Good discounts

Cons

Company values are constantly discussed - these values are not always delivered from the top of the organisation Low pay compared to other similar roles with other companies - hard to gain worklife balance, it's the norm to work all hours to constantly deliver It takes more than company discount to retain employees
