Pros

Decent office location. Close to the station and right by the river, Plenty of lunch places etc nearby.

Cons

Junior staff members are exploited by being required to work extremely long hours for no reward 40 hour week, presumably to make it difficult for people to interview elsewhere. Wages probably dip below minimum hourly wage given actual hours can be 50+ No tea/coffee or even access to hot water. Staff on ridiculously low wages expected to purchase such things at a profit making canteen on site Management dangle fake/worthless promotions in front of staff in a desperate attempt to retain them Management is almost universally rude and aggressive. Attempts are made to break the spirits of employees. Complaints made about inappropriate conduct of staff members are ignored The rare members of staff who have worked at the company for more than 6 months have forgotten what normal companies are like and have resigned themselves to bringing in their own stationary and flasks of tea, which is terribly sad. CEO and top management motivated by one thing - personal greed. Lack of investment in people or products in order to squeeze every last penny of profits is a cynical strategy.

Pros

Supportive team, collaboration within the team

Cons

You never get a raise or promotion, not even annual inflation adjustment. Higher management doesn’t care about you or any other employees. They are only concern about generating more revenue without even appreciating or giving any perks to their employees.
