Pros

The business is very flexible - something I find particularly helpful as a working parent. It's great not having to compromise between my career and picking up my kids. Lots of opportunity for personal development, whether it's in the department you started out in or another. Many colleagues have ended up doing jobs different from what they were originally recruited for as the business encourages them to match up their skills to their perfect role.

Cons

With so many people working remotely from all corners of the country it's a shame the team can't get together more often.

Pros

Flexible employer who responds well to personal matters impacting work life balance.

Cons

- I felt i was not given opportunities to prosper or develop in areas of interest. - I felt i was treated like a trainee of having to ask for permission to perform tasks, instead of showing initiative. - I felt i was micromanaged to the extent my manager demanded weekly emails detailing what work i did during the week, how long each task took, what tasks i will be doing next week and how long each task will take and then what i have in my pipeline of work. On top of this was constant outlook calendar monitoring.

Pros

I am trusted to do my job in a professional and timely manner with no micro management from my manager. The atmosphere in most teams is great and colleagues really do bounce off of one another. Most people are happy in their roles and ensure that they provide a positive working environment to their colleagues. Workload is manageable, but not easy (wouldn't have it any other way!)

Cons

Systems can be cumbersome, but the business is working on sorting this soon.
