Pros
Superb/generous commission structure. Stability: could forge a career here, seems recession resilient, very stable management team. Location: heart of city of London, great office. Friendly co workers including management. Proactive and collaborative marketing department. Supportive HR department and great effort put into employee wellbeing e.g. monthly socials, parties and beers on Friday. Aside from technology resources are good. Some really superb opportunities. Once in a lifetime stuff! Not at all necessary, but done at the grace of management.
Cons
Technology is improving but still frustrating (slow computers/occasional dropouts). I'm told large investment is being put into our tech, so this part of the review may be obsolete in coming months. Management can be poor at receiving feedback/recognizing new ideas: the phrase "we've never done that here" is heard regularly as a means of overruling innovation or dismissing an individual's skillset. Whilst the longevity of the company must be respected, it has not grown in size or evolved any new approach in over 20 years.
