Pros

Get to walk around a lake at lunch time. The pay for the area is ok.

Cons

Stuck in the 1970's. Very authoritarian system. Fixed holidays which for an office job in 2020 is insane. Projects are run poorly with very unrealistic timing plans. No regard for staff wellbeing, any suggestions on how to improve the culture are suppressed immediately. Not allowed to wear headphones again for 2020 is bonkers. Messages from the owner plastered kn every wall which over time just looks like propaganda. No regard for the customer as long as they are making money.
