Pros

One free coffee per day from the cafe which the company pays for. Some managers are actually great to be around and genuinely want to help and invest the efforts to demonstrate company values.

Cons

Rarely any career progression here due to constantly restructuring and redundancies. Even if there is you'll question how much longer is your role safe for before you get the cut. Managers do not lead by example. In fact they do the complete opposite. Always focusing on the negatives. Rather than incentivise to encourage they would penalize and that is how they would enforce it. Targets and KPIs consistently changes and mid to senior managers frequently come up with new ways to dock you're pay. Deductions that you are made aware of only days before monthnend. This company is run by a group of cowboys, you don't want to work here!

Pros

A lot of growth in the business in recent years(pity the maturity of those who manage it hasn't). You get free coffee in the morning.

Cons

Mismanaged, with no clear direction, iSelect protects its image to share holders by blaming its staff "clearing house" and "righting mistakes of the past" on a six monthly basis whilst actually succeeding in getting rid of or driving away the few remaining staff that had a clue or believed in the what the business could achieve and delivering on very few of the promises that the CEO and Board make.
