Pros

- Focus on wellbeing, flexible working and holidays - Some great people dpending on where you work - In house learning

Cons

Depends very much on where you work within the business. You can often have multiple lines of reporting who don't talk to each other and result in duplication of conversations and effort. - Often felt very much "us" and "them" between senior managers and the rest of the department. - The mix of contractors and internal staff can cause conflict of interest at times. - Lot's of excessive processes to complete that don't add value. - Often felt derided by senior leaders and very much abandoned by management for majority of work and left to fend for yourself while they looked to work on high prestige pieces of work - In terms of career progression it did not seem viable, the only real viable progression was to leave the business
