Pros

Every day is a new challenge and you get to work with some highly talented people. There are many benefits to the role outside of just work. With lots of group activities and a sense of community Managers do have a one to one relationship with staff usually and will do everything they can to help you do well

Cons

It’s a stressful job for the amount of pay you receive. To succeed in the business you need to be willing to forfeit your own time to progress. A lot of lateral progression can feel like you are sitting still even when taking on more demanding extra work.

Pros

Some members of the company are the best people you’ll ever meet.

Cons

Genuinely a complete mess. Incompetent, passive aggressive leadership that repeatedly makes both poor and confusing company decisions. I have some absolutely crazy stories from things I’ve witnessed here. There’s things that are so bizarre and dysfunctional, they belong in an alternate reality.
