Pros

My colleagues are incredibly genuine and talented. Truly one of the best teams I’ve had the pleasure of working with in my career. The culture was strong when I first joined, but unfortunately, that’s no longer the case

Cons

The latest reviews are pretty accurate. The company has gone downhill since the new leadership took over following the investment. With the industry also in decline, the outlook for the next few years looks quite bleak
