Pros

There are some genuinely good people in this company, it's just a shame they're all brainwashed by the 'blue blood' con. If you have no options after finishing University, these guys will take you.

Cons

Revolving door for graduates. Huge annual intake with very few opportunities for progression. The salary is at least 20% below market and the working week is a minimum of 50 hours. Worst of all is the drinking culture within the company - you've never seen a room full of so many drunk people until you've been to a mainfreight function.
