Pros

Good range of tasks, opportunity to progress, project involvement, nice line management split between "work" and "personal", regular feedback asked for about work/life, brilliant teams to people to work with who definitely have a can do approach.

Cons

Occasionally feel left out of events or benefits as don't work at any offices - mobile tech. Benefits not that great. Expectation of taking printed material to site with no provision of hardware to do it.

Pros

Beautiful offices - can't choose between Hatfield or Blackfriars in terms of aesthetics.

Cons

Where do I start? Sales people who are celebrated despite most of them being being both misogynistic and completely useless at anything that involves actually activating their brains (as opposed to their over-inflated egos). So much praise and emphasis heaped on these characterless twits that they actually start to believe that they're some sort of demi-gods. They strut around in their ill-fitting suits and BlackBerrys and quite frankly it's embarrassing. Seeing people waste half their life in such a depressing and soulless environment makes me thank the lord I had the sense to get out within a year - so many employees start being unable to see a world outside of the grey, cold walls of Hatfield. Funny as most outsiders haven't even heard of Computacenter! The company needs to start treating the support staff and hard working "behind the scenes" employees, rather than just heaping all the rewards on to the sales force. It's unfair and demoralising. It's such a "who you know" company that it's virtually impossible to progress unless you're mates with one of the (probably incapable) managers of your department.
