Pros

Friendly staff, good work life balance, good starting job to learn the basics

Cons

No trust given and therefore no challenge to the job; Micromanagement is horrendous and some team leads become passive aggressive if they feel threatened by your ability/ideas; LPs treated differently to all other staff because they are disposable - do not think there is any way to progress in this job, because there isn't; Poorly treated during covid, no equipment given and no pay rises despite promotions being given. Expected to pay for screens/a mouse etc when the office is filled with equipment. Other departments in legal given full equipment; Made to feel you are lucky to have a job instead of the company making you feel valued
