Pros

Great study policy, pay rises for exams, social and open culture welcome to ask to get involved in any particular work. Good mentoring opportunities

Cons

Low pay for the industry / role. A lot of work politics, gossip gets out very quick. Business has to do well to get promoted which is incentivising people to leave

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
