Pros

There are some fairly nice people, but they are generally spread around.

Cons

Although it seems to depend on your team/office location, Birketts was (and according to reports, still is) a fairly miserable place to work. The compensation is dreadful, the progression almost non existent and there are some “leaders” who could really do with an assessment of actual leadership. Seems to be a sinking ship now, despite reports.
