Business outlook

Pros

- Beautiful Office, close to office - Flexi time - Decent pay

Cons

- Most of the leadership was overseas, making it difficult to move forward in the business - Larger regions would get prioritised over others, putting a lot of unnecessary strain on sales team. - Overseas management did not always support the smaller regions

Business outlook

Pros

The pay, benefits and the few individuals who dare to speak their mind

Cons

A bunch of managers (esp in Oz) specialise in protecting their position / gaining advancement by putting muck on others and seeing what sticks. Works a treat in a fear-riddled survivor style environment
