Pros

Great supportive place to work if you're a team player. Often leave early on Friday and my colleagues are all really lovely

Cons

It is expected that you have to work hard and if you don't you're quickly found out. Small business so there is limited room to progress.

Pros

From personal experience there are none

Cons

Once again, management because of appointment/connection/relation, not because of skill. Company does the bare minimum when it comes to employee 'benefits'. No on-site HR department. No compassion for employees, constant micro-management, too many wasteful meetings. A lonely, directionless job, mis-sold to me, and swiftly moved the goalposts. It's easy to see why so many people leave the company.

Pros

The team are friendly, funny and competent - where there is pressure there is high reward, support and appreciation - and as the team is around 20, you always feel you can be heard. I actually left after 3 years here to work for family, and missed it so much I returned in 2023 to new spacious offices that are in a great location. There are a few new faces, but the majority are familiar due to the fact that most people want to stay here for the long-haul!

Cons

Publishing deadlines don't suit everyone - especially those who want a stress-free work life, but management currently do everything in their power to be as flexible as possible, and support individual departments.
