Pros

Flexible working hours and 30 days annual leave after ( years of service.

Cons

Toxic environment, poor management with no leadership skills. Controlling and micromanaging staff. Pay is shockingly bad. Offices fall apart with dirty carpets, broken printers, clutter everywhere and blocked toilets. Staff kitchens dirty run down with old appliances which often break or don’t work. Management unprofessional forgets public money pays for their incompetence.
