Pros

Some nice people at the company

Cons

Management is ineffective from top to bottom. Many tasks are more complicated and take more effort than they should. The building may look nice, but it’s falling apart—nothing ever works properly: lifts, toilets, etc. Every year, we’re told it’s the best year ever and how much profit has been made, yet we receive an embarrassing pay rise that’s always well below inflation.
