Pros

The pay is good for basic administrative tasks and working in HR. If you are from an ethnic minority you can progress without any skills and build a case for discrimination which they will settle out of court even if there is no real case, to save the bad publicity.

Cons

The senior management team employ spin and outright lies to tell the general staff what a great job they are doing, and these lies are so obvious that it is embarrassing. The HR dept is so massive that it is choking itself, and uses delaying tactics and looses files and paperwork to the detriment of individual employees. They employ some people whose only role is to spy on colleagues via Facebook and Twitter.

Training hit and miss Supervisory support hit and miss, inconsistency Ridiculous HR/attendance management policy Frustratingly disorganised - try finding information anywhere! Many teams work in silos Focus on stats, rather than getting a job done
