Pros

Good payment package, nice building, good equipment, promoted work life balance, interested in great place to work. Insightful to the retail market.

Cons

Unfortunately even some of the pro's such as promoted worksite balance and interested in a great place to work are just talk. Senior Management is very poor and does not encourage Middle Management to Develop or succeed. Working week was often 60 hours + while only contracted for 42. It was also impossible to take holidays and you were looked down on for it. There is always a sense of Management waiting for you to make a mistake and punish you rather than reward you. Overall a horrible place to be. In saying that this appears to be department specific. The Department in question also had a sexist policy which made it near impossible to be successful.
