Pros

Wage Team mates Nothing else comes to mind

Cons

I knew something was off from the start. Recruitment person was brutal absolutely brutal. I usually give allowances for juniors but she was beyond it. Slow at responding, organising just slow in general and was clear that she should not be put in front of perspective candidates. Did not seem to understand that first impressions count very poor. The mangers do not have enough knowledge to be team leads. Major underperformed across the board. If you put a female recruiter with little people skills in front of people with experience who are in demand then that is enough of a red flag.

Pros

I'd genuinely struggle to tell you. Anything I thought was good going in quickly ebbed away. I had other offers but I thought this place would have a decent culture (even though the pay was a bit naff) and opportunities to grow - how wrong I was!

Cons

The job you will do will not be the job advertised to you advertised There is a clock and dagger culture, with lots of backstabbing HR pull the strings of the managers, as opposed to managers being empowered to lead but ironically the HR team doesn't understand basic employment law There are ridiculous layers of bureaucracy, meaning lots of talk and meetings, but little action
