Pros

For an admin job - this is well paid. You can move to different depts within the company (but within a team there is not much progression). Flexible working times.

Cons

Very stiff and conservative working atmosphere - most people are overworked in the buying/buying admin dept, so people are often very short with you (especially the buying team). Worked unpaid overtime everyday. Everything is always 'urgent' and 'business critical', so most days are stressful. The commute is really long and about to get longer with the office relocation. Lack of employee benefits - the discount is very small and not much else of worth is offered.
