Pros

Kind and friendly colleagues. Good place to work for (some) ethnic minorities, gave me an insight into what kind of org I DON'T want to work for :)

Cons

Not wheelchair accessible, backward cultural norms and views, incredibly backward on gender particularly. Unprofessional working environment, due to most people being employed as a result of being someone's family friend or relative rather than on merit. Large proportion of the workforce have been there 10+ years (usually the relatives and family friends). It does not feel like you're in the 21st century. Career progression only available if you're pakistani and/or conservative muslim. Lots of unqualified staff
