Pros

Recent promotion of work life balance and flexi working arrangements. Linking management pay to external market rates. Pockets of management who are keen to promote development opportunities

Cons

Very federated business unit. Large and highly bureaucratic. Often wrapped up in historical legacy. Political to the extreme at times!
